The Composing Series, are derived from an everyday release by drawing compulsively, repetitive and continuous lines which shape into melodic style. The basis for Composing Series are created while seated or standing, awaiting at a counter, or while talking on the telephone, at a rapid moment, perhaps a nervous and quick reaction versus the act of staying still. It is difficult not to draw these lines if I am confronted by an empty page- an urge to create a fluid image. Composing Series are melodic, a construction in progress.
