	"An exploration into color is probably the dominant technical aspect of my work, and print processes are most suitable for expressing my ideas. As far as subject matters are concerned, I derive much pleasure when I can take some commonplace object or situation from my personal environment: a chair, the diner where I eat, a model in the studio - and successfully transform it into something visually and spiritually exciting." *
