The artist describes his use of the microcomputer to explore the nature of images he has created in the visual arts. He explains how he used a new IBM authoring language called HANDY to create a wide variety of images that later became a basis for drawings in colored pencils and black-and white lithographs. This article is an attempt to show how he has incorporated a new technology into an ongoing body of work and in what ways this has altered the content and direction of his art
