Slow Burn

A blog by an artist — for artists, and for anyone who believes (or is learning to believe) that meaningful work takes time.

Welcome.

Slow Burn is an evolving, contemplative space for thinking through art, practice, and the kinds of questions that resist quick answers. It began as a place to reflect on my own work—both in the studio and through research—but it’s becoming something more: a quiet archive of process, slowness, and the long, often uncertain road of making meaningful things.

Here, time is not an enemy, but a material. This blog is part journal, part sketchbook, part letter to fellow artists and thinkers. Over time, you’ll find essays, studio notes, and reflections on process, teaching, and the seasons of a creative life. Some posts draw from personal experience, others from theory, history, and the words of artists and writers I admire.

What ties everything together is this: a deep commitment to trusting time—to allowing ideas, practices, and artworks to unfold at their own pace. There’s no rush here. No pressure to arrive quickly or perform clarity before it’s real. Just an invitation to linger, to notice, and to create from where you are.

If you’re someone who values depth over speed, process over perfection, and the slow, strange beauty of becoming — you’re in the right place.

Thank you for being here.
