ĘThis project unites my knowledge and opportunities under one name: 'Search for a New Way'. This research is not dedicated to one particular theme. The project is going to be completed using widely known techniques of fine art and computer design. Together I intend to print images on a big scale using a new Enead Pro, printer, which allows us to use a range of media on a scale suitable for museums or gallery exhibitions. Experimentation is a core of this project. Experimentation with different medias and their relationship to produce harmony. This project is going to result in 6 works, where the newly developed ideas are going to be applied. Any art process is a probe and the purpose of art is beauty.

Research into Duluth's little known 1887 performance of Edwin Booth's and Lawrence Barrett's 'Joint Star' tour production of Shakespeare's Julios Caesar, uncovers information previously ignored or unknown in prominent dissertations and/or publications. Unpublished materials from The Owen Fawcett & Elizabeth Robbins Collections provide not only a photo ensemble of the tour's entire cast, crew and management but also one contrct of the 1887-88 national tour and an extant copy of a play written by Junius Brutus Booth entitled: Ugolino. This information enhances knowledge of all researchers in the Booth/Barrett field.
