    Graphite is significant to me due to my childhood introduction to the material and to drawing as an encouraged creative process. In a commercial setting my father drew and worked with graphite, until the digitization of his trade rendered his materials obsolete.  Despite the increased digitization of societal forms of visual communication, I believe in the supremacy of hand drawing and of graphite’s material power which has the ability to reclaim lost territory.
