Never Flinch, 2014, POD open edition, soft and hard cover available. Collected by Baylor University Central Libraries, University of Miami Richter Library, Collins Library at University of Puget Sound
Never Flinch is an autobiographical visual journal that I published as a print on demand book through in 2014. A visual journal is a marriage of writing and art; a playground for a busy, creative mind; an amplification of your inner voice; a record of your experiences; a regular meeting over coffee between you and yourself. Through a rich layering of mixed media drawing, printmaking and collage, this self-reflective journal immerses the reader in a colorful narrative about life, art, science, travel and family.
In my journal practice, I use a wide variety of materials and techniques. I write the text using a stream of consciousness, timed writing approach, and then visualize the writing through collage, image transfers, wax resist, linoleum prints, ink wash, acrylic, watercolor, drawing and erasure poetry.
