Who Am I?

For the meantime, I am Danaë Françoise Davis. Keeping track of who I am starts to become...irrational...irritating...a big red sign that flashes "Vacancy". I'm in a constant state of flux, like a mountain river valley, slowly giving way to the hungry waters eating away at the bottom, carrying away the mountainside to another part of the world.
Within my artwork, I always find new ways to do things. I love experiment with new media. Right now, my work is consistently dwelling in the printing realms of oil based relief inks, dirty hands for days and many pass-throughs on the press. While I haven't yet created anything specific or wonderful or a masterpiece, I have learned what I love about monotypes and monoprints and now trace monoprints and the use of stencils! I have a faint glimmer of hope that I know where this is going. For now, It falls into the state of flux. For me, being in flux means I am not stagnent, and I keep pushing onward, even if the results of the experiment don't work out the way I want it to. I have something in me about to explode, I can I feel it bubble and churn under the surface. I am excited to see what I can do next.
