Maker's statement
I have made quite a few faceted pieces, because I like having the surface segmented to suggest drawing possibilities, sequences and so on, things in series that jump from one place to the next. This is the stoutest of such pieces. Also inter-relation of image or pattern is a recurrent preoccupation.
