Incidents of Travel...

“The path of the wanderer has only one end, for there is only one journey: it is both common and unique . . . . .
The only choice is what we see along the way, what we learn from it, and who we teach it to."
– Barry B. Longyear, Enemy Mine

The drawings are not art, nor the writings literature.
The research which spawned them is often subjective; the truths they espouse, interpretations.
Rather, this collection of sketches is about travel, about thinking, about seeing.

Alphonse Bertillion has written: "One can only see what one observes,
and one observes only things which are already in the mind."

These sketches and journal entries, each created in a moment, reflect a lifetime of learning and experience,
of thought and percolation. More significantly, they are spontaneous,
unselfconscious by-products of a process - eye to mind to hand to mind - which is the art of seeing.
They are, in the spirit of Nineteenth Century architect/explorer Frederick Catherwood, "Incidents of Travel…" They are the
recorded observations of an architect, a teacher and a wanderer - something seen along the way, now shared.
