ripples, folds and holes

100 waves project (3)

If I were to be more accurate, this would be called 138 Waves. I set a goal of drawing a wave for each day that I had not been able to surf, since my injury. My prediction was 100 days, but the reality had been 138 days. It has been amazing to discover how different each simple drawing is, even though they are all essentially the same form.

Waves are a process, like life. My work is becoming more and more focused on being a process. There is a repetition, a cycle of exploration and reinvestigation that comes from a desire to really understand the complex nature of something so simple as a wave. It take infinite forms that are based upon one simple, general shape. They all look similar, and no two are alike.
