Before coming to Kauai in 1978 I was making color pencil drawings on paper like these. I was attracted to exotic figures and locales, and borrowed images from magazines and old photographs.

On Kauai, images from my sketch books begin to appear in my drawings, such as the banyan root patterns from Lawai Kai valley, or the rock outcrop on Nounou Mountain that reminded me of a gargoyle head.
