Diary Project
I’ve kept diaries since 1975. They’re my written and visual records of thoughts, factoids, and personal dramas. When one of these diaries was lost, I was heartbroken. As weeks and then months passed, I assumed I’d never see it again, but fourteen years later a stranger returned it to me. Over the past four years I’ve used a copy of each page of the diary as the foundation for a new drawing. It’s been a journey backwards as well as forwards. It’s often painful to read my immature words, but the project has given me the chance to create a body of work which I hope represents a more adult person.
