The below slideshow is comprised of 37 mixed media drawings from the  2018 series,

Variable Soup is a series of works, comprised of drawings, sculptures, and large scale paintings. The concept states that interpreting the realities around and within us is never a clear cut undertaking. This idea permeates the body of work and the body of the artist. In life there are always endless variables, which ones we decide to hone and focus determines not just our perspective but our actions. The creation process serves as a cartharsis, wading through unknowns towards homeostasis.

Below are a series of drawings in keeping with the Variable Soup theme. Each mixed media ( pen, ink, caran dache, watercolor) 30 x 30 cm drawing is created independently of one another, serving as variable units. Later the drawings or units are combined in limitless combinations presenting a grouping that mirrors the decision making process behind every action in life.
