Inkjet prints on Hahnemuhle Bright White, 11" x 17" 2008

Sketch 4 I.D. is new work... I am taking selections from photographed trees, blending them with scans of my skin and adding stories that are inspired by the tree shape.

This is the first project I have worked on since moving to Rochester, NY. I am excited by the trees here and true to my interests in decay, the body, and marking, find myself compelled to photograph and compile their marks of age and disease.
