Like many artists, I am in the habit of keeping a visual journal, where I make a drawing a day. For one year, beginning in November 2005, I kept my journal on a special paper with brush and water. When water is applied to this paper it resembles ink, however unlike ink it begins to evaporate immediately and rapidly. After drawing my entry I photographed it as it disappeared. Sometimes I would take one photo, on other days, up to five images. 

PUBLISHED PORTFOLIOS

I have self-published two books of the Disappearing Journal images, one of verticals and one of horizontals. Please click on the images to see more of each book and to order them from the publisher.
