Close examination of the surfaces shows a concern with frottage,grattage and intaglio as I have yielded to the impuse towards a deeper personal symbolism along the line pursued by those interested in the heritage of surrealism-for example Max Ernst- I have followed many painters in this well established expressionist mode. in my experience however the modes of cutting,rubbing and incising carry a genuine potency which,though exposing the author to the charge of an excess of style over content-do have powerful evocation and as such remain authentic.
