Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.For most of my career, I had worked with female models, exploring issues of identity, sexuality and personal power. During and after the pandemic, that didn't seem relevant. I also wanted to throw pottery again as I had at the beginning of my career. I found the process consoling, and I wanted to offer consolation to others. I felt protective of my friends and my family. I began a series of sculptures that combine thrown and modeled forms. They are meant to be protective figures from the realm of myth and imagination. This one, Buddy Buddha, is my own beloved dog, who was such a cheerful and affectionate companion during that terrible time.glazed stoneware 15 x 8 x 8"

I'm inspired by the simplicity and directness of Folk and Outsider art. And when I was working on this piece, the words to the David Bowie song, "Rebel, Rebel," were going through my mind.collage with jewelry findings and string 12 x 12 x 1"

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.Inspired by art history's paintings of artists at their easels, I made this painting of the beginning of the process of awaiting an idea or inspiration for a painting. This part of the process is magical to me and perhaps the most difficult of going from idea to committing to creating a painting of that concept. For me the process begins by turning inward.oil on oil primed linen 29.75 x 26 x 1"

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.My palette of found objects and foundry molds requires being tactile, playful, and using chance and intentional placement to create anthropomorphic totems. As I create my work, I let the shapes and objects guide me. The composition comes first but with constant editing, a theme emerges. I find meaning in these found objects and detritus from the past. By reimagining their purpose and giving them personalities, I look to recast their history and for the viewer to find kinship in these haunting shapeshifters. Freed from their destiny as trash, these curious objects assume new identities and evocation of something soulful.painted foundry molds & found materials 28.5 x 17.5 x 6"

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.Experimentation is at the core of my artistic practice. I constantly push the boundaries of traditional oil painting techniques, seeking new ways to express my vision and engage with the materials. Through the exploration of color, texture, and complex layering processes utilizing oil paint and cold wax, I open myself up to unexpected outcomes and exciting discoveries. Each layer holds traces of the artistic process, revealing the history and evolution of the piece. I believe that through the accumulation of layers, the artwork gains a sense of richness and storytelling, inviting the viewer to explore the hidden narratives within.oil & cold wax on panel 24 x 30 x 1.5"

My art is an expression of that Truth. The Truth which goes beyond our five senses. The truth which goes beyond the senses of seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and touch. This is a truth of feeling and sensing, the inner world and the intangible outer world. I use visual art forms such as painting, drawing, printmaking and photography to express my inner and life experiences.

Equipped with my Nikon and a telephoto lens, I sat aft observing the ensigns' flow and flutter. I favor a telephoto lens for its ability to draw viewers into the scene, eliciting a reflective response to the imagery. This vision was captured aboard "Irish" off Camden, Maine, in West Penobscot Bay. Being on a US-flagged vessel gives me a profound sense of security. I aim to search for images that convey significant symbols reflective of how and where I live. The clarity of bright days contributes to fulfilling my artistic pursuit of simplicity, symbolism, and the evocation of thought.

I feel a profound connection to the island. The smells, breezes, colors, ocean and warm, wonderful people inspire me. It is not about making a pretty picture, it is about spiritual connection on a deep level. I have experienced healing there after devastating losses. It always fills me up, even when I didn't realize I was empty. My hope is to move the viewer in some way.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.I have always loved photographing people. What energizes me is how spontaneous the process is, and unpredictable people are. This photograph was taken, several years ago, on a Photography trip to Guatemala. I was struck by the light and shadow on the woman, the stairs, and arch, as she was sweeping the church steps. The scene that was in the background seemed to glow in the sunlight. It was a magical moment! These days you might find me with my camera, photographing people on the streets of NYC.digital photography, Inkjet archival print 23.5 x 17.5 x 1"

Rounded forms have, of late, stimulated participation in the circular movements of life – the coming round to something or spinning out of control. I bounce, roll, wobble, and delight in using color to enhance this movement and give the shapes a dynamic, often tactile, visual effect.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.acrylic on canvas 15.5 x 16.5 x 1.5" My work is all about New York. The sense of belonging, and the desperation felt whenever I'm not in New York. It is about finding the place where I feel like myself. My work seeks to ask the viewer: ‘what is it that you desire? Where is it that you’d wish you could be? Where are you the happiest? What are you doing or where are you when you are your most authentic self? Who would you so dearly wish that would appear in front of you? What dreams do you have? What keeps you moving forward? Through my paintings I hope the viewer will engage in a conversation that could also relate to their own personal story, their own memories, their own personal questions, hopes, and aspirations.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.White Cedar Swamp is a magical place near my home and studio on Cape Cod. I was unaware this wonderland was tucked between the bay and the national seashore, less than a mile away from me, until a friend introduced me to the place on a hike. I felt transported in this space, surrounded by trees and dazzled by the reflections in the pools of water. Immediately, I knew I had found a new muse. I am drawn back there frequently and it is always a different spectacle. Moonlight Magic depicts my memory of the swamp on the rising of The March Worm Moon. In folklore, this full moon symbolizes inspiration, rebirth, hope, and luck.oil paint on wrapped canvas 24 x 24 x 2"

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.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.My process is intuitive. The curve of pencil line, the profile of a face or ancient sculpture, the palette and form were entirely happenstance. In conversation with a well-known artist and curator years ago, my work was described by them as “sophisticated.” Later, working with that individual became a rude awakening of how sexist, degrading and elitist the art world can be for a female identified artist. I felt this piece was a triumph in its overt femininity, fresh gesture and formal strength which is why I chose it for this show.mixed media on paper 18 x 16 x 1.25"

When I return to my studio, I sort the sicks by length, width, straightness or curvature, and color. When a stick's bark is spotted or striped, it often remains, but I also carve, burn, and use colored pencils on others. My next step is to search through my bins of found materials to find the perfect match between sticks and usually abandoned metal. The entire process of creating is fun and exciting, filling me with joy.

Playing with the volutes of the feminine curves and the metaphor of the spring or the string, the artist invites the gaze of the viewer to unwind along with the subject, from her mind to the tips of her toes.

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.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.This painting, Rewilding, references the ruderal plant growth that breaks through the brick, steel, and concrete of abandoned urban spaces. It is part of a series of abstract paintings made in response to on-site drawings of former brick factories in the forest alongside the Hudson River, NY. The way these plants break through the industrial structures and restore the scarred earth is a metaphor of resiliency and the impermanence of things . By releasing the structures we once thought supported us, we can discover new growth and the power of possibility.acrylic paint with collage on cradled wood panel 24 x 18 x .75"

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.watercolor 16 x 21 x 1" Color, light and shadow—created by the sun outside but observed primarily indoors in the kitchen—are magic. There is something about lighted round vibrant color fruits, such as oranges and tomatoes, combined with blues, usually found in ceramics and fabric, that, for me, represent a promise: of the pleasures of food, kitchens, meals, community, peace. Given the disturbing times in which we live, my paintings are a small pleasurable alternative. I deeply appreciate still life.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.Mama’s Garden Was Blue is from the series ‘Into The Woods’, I believe green is a lucky color, most people love it. From spring to fall it presents us a galore of nuanced hues and values. And it takes its place right in the center of the rainbow. Blue, on the other hand, is the foundation of the world. It’s everywhere. It’s our air, our seas, it’s the one that embraces us, another words it’s like a mother. Here my entire interpretation is about a mother’s love. In such, while almost contradicting my own theory, the blues are in the flowers, whereas the green is placed at the mom’s skirt. Challenging myself and wondering what the reaction of the viewer will be. This always enriches me!acrylic / mixed media 30 x 24"

Having been forever awestruck by the sanctity and power of water, I infuse fluid organic forms in my paintings to provoke a sense of fantasy, reminding people of brief moments when life felt like dreamy encounters.
