I met with Andrew Cooks January 16 in NYC; see February blog post. With Laura Gonzalez in NYC, I met jointly with both advisors to discuss my work as it progress towards conclusion of the MFA and beyond.

The NYC conversations led to productive email correspondences. To my current series of paintings, Sonata, Andrew has offered feedback to the posted writing and images on my blog, short intermittent updates via emails, and with his first semester assessment. This included providing information on the works of Bernhard Sachs, Imants Tillers, T.S. Eliot, Marcel Duchamp, identity(ies) and between spaces. Andrew's well considered feedback to these email communiqués has been very conducive to the unfolding of my thoughts at a (s)pace fitting to my process; providing me the desired outlet to develop my writing as an integral part of my studio practice.

Our next meeting is scheduled for April 8.
