I worked for a long time on this painting. Each time I started painting it I felt like I entered some mysterious space, though I do not know the nature of this space, Marilyn turned herself, or maybe better to say, sacrificed herself, into some eternal porcelain which never faded or into a diamond which never stopped shining.oil on canvas 28 x 22 x 2"

Though the shipping container was all white, one cube contained a circle of radiating bars that could be painted to look like the underside of a manhole cover. I added a rim and painted the interior metallic copper. Cheesecloth was glued over the packing peanuts filling the empty cube. As I tamped in mud, roots and stones, I experienced the ecstasy of artistic creation, knowing that I had achieved the Inside-out Theme perfectly for the competition I wished to enter.sculpture relief 26 x 15 x 6"

Materials are transformed to another level. There are areas of subtlety, sometimes subtle variations of a single hue. There are also passages of intricacy and/or simplicity within the work. There is a strong interplay of color, line, texture, and form.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.I like the ethereal quality of finding images and shapes within and behind other shapes. I find ways to find "safe passage" through the canvas, much as we all manuever through life and find our way. Life is like a puzzle and we all have to find a way to make all the pieces fit. Intuitively I convey feelings in a particular painting depending on my situation at the time..exploring the way shapes intersect in life and the way we someimes hide the obvious behind a mask. However I want the viewer to reach their own conclusions about what the symbolism may represent and decide what I may have been thinking.acrylic on canvas 36 x 24 x 1.5"

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.oil 20 x 20 x 2" From the Invisible Women Collection: Voyeur is small to replicate the sensation of peering into a closed space. Apprehensive, yet drawn to that upstairs window, we are unable to resist the temptation of looking inside, but feel guilty for invading someone’s privacy. The figure may have gone unnoticed. Returning outside, one might see that the odd sizing of the brick exterior is both curious and uncomfortable, dreamlike in the way it feels warped from sitting in the sun. This peculiar patterning draws us down to a solitary figure looking out a darkened window below, penned in, trapped, invisible.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.mixed media on Arches oil paper 13 x 13 x 1.25" I paint military spouses who live in West Point, NY- where the United States Military Academy is located. As a proud military spouse, I became interested in the cumulative effects of this lifestyle- exploring identity erasure, community, and impermanence. My work, "Sponors' Last Four," refers to the military's organization of spouses by the last four of the active duty member's social security- instead of their names. I also developed a process that was reflective of these experiences: the chaotic and relentless cycle of breaking down and starting over. I repeatedly disrupt, redraw, and rerender figures. I intend to not only express the challenges these women face but also their beauty.

Together they form a whole, It is an allegory to life in which groups of people working for a common goal project beauty, integrity and value each other. In this polarized and divided world we need empathy, kindness, tolerance and moral values to prevail by the purity of these ideals and actions, not yielding to violence, corruption or evil.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.oil on canvas 6 x 10 x 2" My inspiration for this recent piece, is my continued love of the 'Casa Colonica' in Italy. These farmhouses represent a rural life of an epoch gone by, which I find fascinating. By painting their portrait so to speak, I feel I am giving them a renewed voice and acknowledgement. I feel a connection to these massive structures. This particular view in the dark of night has a comforting feeling yet a loneliness standing in the shadows with only a half light from the moon illuminating. The stone wall in the foreground creates a presence of its own, inviting the viewer to proceed forward or warning to stay and watch from afar. Moonlight Moon is the beginning of my 'Italian Night Series.'

In this work I allow each material to inform the evolution of image making. Started during a road trip in 2023 with a small kit, I began these drawings with layers of brushed-on ink that got worked over with marker which rendered a silvery, burnished surface. These quickly became a process that encouraged intuitive shape-making, and where chaos on the page came to order through a network of connections.

Using wire mesh, aluminum wire, and paper, I created a series of 'almost-but-not-quite-real' gateways and spaces that could be interpreted as constrained enclosures or places of safety and shelter. My choice of the wire mesh presents a dominant texture and pattern, begging the question: is it harsh or soothing? While I try to answer this, I also invite the viewer to wander into the space and solve the mystery for themselves.

I spent a whole day taking photos up and down the bridge. I couldn't wait to see what photo would impress me the most when I got home. It was the Great White Trillium. A dramatic flower with wide petals and yellow stamen. It is majestic. I felt like Georgia O'Keef painting beautiful petals with streaming yellow centers splashing into one another. That's why I named this piece of artwork, My Cup Runneth Over.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.oil painting on linen 48 x 75 x 2" I am a visual storyteller, a painter of women, the sea, mysterious encounters and uncommon places. In all of my work, women are the dominant elements. My goal is not to idealize them in any way, but to portray each woman’s individuality, her power, her connection to other women and to the world. Birds, especially seabirds, have long been choreographed into my work, sometimes as companions, other times as avatars of change, growth, or escape. There is a dreamlike aspect to my paintings, a surreal confluence of elements that feels very real. In my larger work, my viewpoint is often just outside the picture plane – one more step and you feel as if you can enter the narrative of the painting.

It insists on normalcy and coping/acting as if all is fine in the face of the biggest life challenges. It could be autism, eating disorders, a congenital ailment, effects of smoking, phobias, IBS and and even acting as you are someone that deep down you don't feel as if it's who you are. The effects are exhausting and dangerous.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.stone sculpture 12 x 4 x 6" My recent work had consisted of abstracts and birds. But I was hankering to create another female form. The alabaster stone presented a deeply erotic natural fissure and fold formation on one side that I was completely drawn to and committed to keeping. Just as quickly, I saw a female form erupting out of the rest of the stone. I was struck by the idea of ‘the wild in us all’ and that this piece would illustrate that notion.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.As an artist and a parent of four young children, trying to navigate life and love within the contexts of the larger world can be complicated. This work emotes imagery of place and time with playful and controlled shapes and color, often feeling like organizing chaos. The work reveals personalities and emotions that have conversations about shape, space and color. The act of painting itself is a metaphor for what we reveal and conceal about ourselves, moving through space and time, collecting emotions and deciding what we put on the surface and what we hide. What we know, and what we need to learn.acrylic & mixed media on cradled wood panel 13.5 x 13.5"

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.oil on Belgian linen 12 x 12" The apprehension of movement on abstract shapes figure predominantly in my paintings. Each individual shape is a particular motion enacted on a still substrate, in this case Belgian Linen. The stop action union of these two opposing elements, movement on stillness and the idea of their simultaneous interaction is my longtime pursuit. I wish to offer a near view of particular shapes, conversing together. I propose these conversations in a sculptural manner adding tensions of heightened light, texture and color. My pursuit concurs with my idea that motion itself as a part of life is a mysterious occurrence.

I paint places, people and things that are dear to my heart, collecting and distilling the images mostly from my own photographs. I use my intuitive sense of color and composition to reflect my emotional relationship to the subject. I paint on linen, canvas and wood panels mostly within the satisfying limitations of a square. My paintings often reveal quiet moments that reflect my desire to counter the vicissitudes of the daily news and one's life experiences. I paint because I love the material and to express and uncover my relationship with the subject matter.oil on wood panel 13.25 x 13.25 x 1.75"

I use concepts of abstraction, cubism, and surrealism to explore the elusive qualities of time, energy, and storytelling. My influences come from everywhere, other art forms, such as jazz music, and the directness of child art. My artistic goal is to create seductive surfaces and provocative forms that involve the viewer in an emotional visual adventure, where they discover associations and meaning. I explore unique materials and techniques and invent images and narratives from my imagination .In this work I am responding to the tumultuous times in which we live.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.I sometimes consider human constructed space and the natural world in my art. In our daily routines we often peer out of one space to glimpse the other. Here, I investigate the "nature deficit" caused by our highly managed world and its cure. The natural world encourages us to explore and dream; to re-engage with the essence of life and beauty, bringing about peace. All materials in this artwork come from nature, but nothing is in its naturally found form. The prefabricated metal structure points to industrial constructs, protrudes into the viewer’s space, and surrounds the implied interior space of the paintings which asks the viewer to step inside.sculpture 17.25 x 12 x 7.5"

Using bold colors and sculptural layers, my painting process is a developing tale and conversation between my materials and myself. To me this painting reflects an evolving universe where communication is less concrete. The narrative I’m creating becomes secondary to the narrative a viewer creates for themself.

I deconstruct and reassemble photographic prints with other materials to allow for new imagery to develop, and I am passionate about the subjects that I work with. Subjects range from photographs of noted artists and writers, found album photos, and family portraits. Ambiguity and familial bond make the work all the more intriguing to me. From a single photograph, multiple images can emerge to portray strength, fragility, beauty, demise and love in a single moment.photo on transparency construction with lace paper and fabric remnants 18 x 15 x 0.5"

This collage was inspired by a hike through the gorgeous landscape of Mt. Rainier, WA. I paint ordinary bags with acrylic, tear them into myriad pieces, which I then hand apply with matte medium to realize my vision.

My artwork is a straightforward sharing of what I see in the world around me, whether it is my family and the traditions we share, or nature including rivers, lakes, rocks, and plants. Portrait work often captures a grandchild. Nature work is usually inspired by the lake area in northern Wisconsin where we have a family lake house, and by the gardens and trees of the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Illinois, or by public gardens I visit on trips. I want the viewer to see the beauty of those places, to smell the scent of flowers and hear the rush of a river depicted in my work. Wisteria and Hydrangea depicts plants at the Morton Arboretum.

This painting was prompted by my walks in southwest Florida this Spring, when the weather is perfect and color abounds. I enjoy getting lost in the tropical forests of Audubon's Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary and the Naples Botanical Gardens, often getting "caught in the nettles" and savoring the flora and wildlife of our region -- bobcats, the endangered FL panther, alligators, and wonderful birds.

It was developed further in the studio, but the sensation of the intense, low light and delicate bone structure of the tree was the feeling I hoped to convey. Using oil paint on a metal substrate allows reflectiveness at different angles when viewing the painting. This is a work that is all about light.

Experiencing the vast rural spaces of unexplored lands of the Burren, County Clare, Ireland, I climbed upon the rocky limestone land, formed of great slabs of rock that were once the sea bed of an ocean millions of years ago. Dotted throughout that rocky surface I found ancient Neolithic monuments like the Poulnabrone Dolmen, one of Ireland’s most iconic and oldest dated megalithic archeological monuments, a portal tomb consisting of two large vertical stones standing on either side of an entrance capped with a massive sloping capstone.

Babylon is located between the Euphrates and the Tigris rivers in present-day Iraq. Excavations have been described as the surgical aspect of archaeology: it is surgery of the buried landscape. Aerial views of digs (before drone photography) were typically line drawings of the site. This monotype transforms a sketch into a colorful representation of the excavation of Babylon. It was created by inking handmade paper plates and running the print through an etching press. Stencils define the rivers and create the rhythm of the landscape. Several passes through the press are made to achieve the final image. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.22 x 30"monotype with stenciling

Recycled is an abstract expression—a personal, yet universal language—which combines concept with experience. It is many things at once. Technically: It is a mixed-media painting, a “combine” of painting with sculpture together with a collage of found, repurposed and recycled objects. Conceptually: It’s a puzzle, a design, a color way, a magical mystery to explore and decode thoughts and ideas about “recycling”. Physically: It is constructed from acrylic paint, watercolor crayon, archived with newly-created palette skins and found objects. All of these elements take direction from the Muses of the Imagination. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.13.25 x 13.25 x 3"mixed media

"When I was young I remember my Mom talking about the Women's Rights Movement. Even as a child I understood that we all deserved to be treated equally so figured the movement would succeed. So, I focused on the need to protect the environment and animals. Half a century later, women are still treated as second class citizens struggling for our inherent rights and we are in the middle of an extinction crisis. What is to be done? One thing that can be done is to create Art that exposes the unbalanced way of thinking that drives inequality and the destruction of environment and wildlife." - Kathleen Zimmerman Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.20 x 20"graphite drawing - works on paper

This piece belongs to a body of work in which I reimagined found twigs as trees with small local birds in their branches, but the piece of dried vine that became the body and legs for this piece was so clearly destined to be part of a complete, though abstract, human body that I was happy to make an exception to the tree limitation.

Conjuration is the act of calling upon, invoking or summoning a spirit, ghosts, demons, gods or other supernatural beings by means of a magic ritual. The central figure is the powerful Conjuror. In the right hand the figure is holding a feather and in the left has captured one of the 7 sister stars of the Pleiades. The conjuror is surrounded by a golden halo and has a white eagle on the head. According to legends the feather will blow in the wind & carry prayers to the Creator evoking the spirits bringing rain & keeping harmful entities at bay. The white eagle connects to the spiritual side and is a sign of a spiritual teacher. I wanted this painting to be spiritually evocative.

As the saying goes "when you know better, you do better", and I've applied that philosophy to my paintings, many of which I've repainted/reclaimed and turned into something completely different. I'm the only one who knows what the underpainting looked like--and most of that gets covered up (as in this painting Dressed Up) with a combination of acrylic paint and stenciling. I never know what the finished piece will look like, and that is what keeps the process exciting and interesting for me. There is always more than meets the eye!

This piece draws its inspiration from the enchanting sounds of nature at night. Picture a captivating symphony orchestrated by the chorus of small creatures, a melodic masterpiece with no clear beginning or end. This harmonious composition sweeps everyone into a dance, casting a luminous glow upon the surroundings. In the heart of this auditory spectacle, I envisioned a diminutive creature perched delicately upon a leaf. With a magical touch, it plays an ethereal melody, weaving the nocturnal symphony into a mesmerizing tapestry of sound and light.

I find it fascinating how the light quality, colors and cloud formations dramatically change on a windy or stormy day. In minutes you can see dark to vibrant colors and go from cloudy to open skies. This painting comes from a ongoing series looking to the sky, trying to capture the vibrancy and moods that sweep in and out.

Squaring the Circle- Structure is dancing with the intuitive, both are needed. The expression "squaring the circle" is sometimes used as a metaphor for trying to do the impossible. A women’s work is never done. Mindfulness is key. If you say that someone squares the circle, you mean that they bring together two things, which are normally thought to be so different that they cannot exist together. Mathematically, it has to do with irrational and rational numbers and mathematicians have been working on it since ancient Greece. A woman’s world today is complicated. The circle and spiral are in many ways more home than the square, but we live in a square world of houses and books and cities.

When photographing wildlife I look for motion and expression in my subjects. I often drive three hours or more to a wildlife area only to find the wildlife doesn’t cooperate! That was the case on the day I photographed this Great Blue Heron. The Heron personifies stoicism and resoluteness, as a gust of wind ruffles his feathers. His windswept feathers created the motion I needed to make the photo more engaging.

In Breaking Through the Matrix, I explore the complexities of our conditioned perceptions and the struggle to break free from the confines of a familiar narrative. This mixed-media piece combines painting, texture, and symbolism to convey a profound narrative of liberation and restraint. At the heart of the artwork is a figure, painted in deep green tones, standing resolutely amidst the expanse of a tranquil lake. This figure represents the individual, immersed in the vastness of existence yet tethered to the constructs of their surroundings. The green hues symbolize growth, renewal, and the ever-present desire for liberation. Embedded within the artwork are delicate gemstones and chains.
