  • Beyond the Last Coordinates acrylic, pens, markers on paper 24 x 19 framed size: 26 x 20 This work reflects Amelia Earhart as both a historical pioneer and a symbolic threshold figure. Rather than presenting a literal portrait, the composition explores the psychological and cultural presence of Earhart navigating uncertainty, exploration, and transformation. Layered forms and atmospheric space reference both the physical terrain of early aviation and the expanding cultural landscape women entered through their achievements. The work honors how individual courage reshapes collective possibility and expands perceptions of freedom.

  • I Dissent: Lipstick Justice (RBG) collage 20 x 16 framed size: 30 x 26 My inspiration was Queen Anne of Austria (former Queen of France). With my feminist spin, I've transformed her persona into Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. During a talkback session following a 2018 performance of "The Originalist", an Off-Broadway play at 59E59 Theaters in New York, she referred to herself as a "flaming feminist". The play centered around her close friend and ideological opposite, the late Justice Antonin Scalia. During the theatrical outing, at 85 years old, she also joked about her then, newfound, mainstream fame (Notorious RBG) and expressed her intention to remain on the bench for at least another five more years. This declaration was part of her long history of speaking boldly and openly about her advocacy for gender equality and women's rights, during her entire career as a lawyer and as a Supreme Court Justice. She was inducted in The National Women's Hall of Fame in 2002. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Pivotal Moment wax pastel on paper 14 x 20 framed size: 20 x 26 I don’t plan my pieces in advance. They evolve and develop like a deep conversation and close relationship. As this piece was taking shape, I was struck by how it was starting to look like a woman from the back, her shoulders, and her head tilted to one side with long flowing hair. And one of the last things I did was to add all the yellow color in the background. Two days after I finished this piece, Renee Good was murdered by ICE on the streets of Minneapolis less than 10 miles from where I live. Soon after, I remember reading a tribute written by Renee's wife. She said that Renee was “made of sunshine”, and in that moment I realized the yellow in my piece was that sunshine.

  • Eye See You, Why Can't You See Me? acrylic 39.75 x 29.75 framed size: 40 x 30 What defines "SHE"? Is it her clothes? Is it how she looks - conforming (or not) to judgey societal norms? "She" should be accepted for whomever and however she authentically chooses to be. She is the one who defines what and who they are...

  • Asking Questions acrylic and metallic paint on canvas 36 x 36 37 x 37 More than seven layers of transparent paint create the background upon which opaque black acrylic paint was used to inscribe research questions copied from an ocean scientist's handwritten notebook. Several more transparent layers were added over the writing. Silver metallic paint was then used to define the fluid shapes suggesting ocean water. Though specifically about ocean research, the painting celebrates the tremendous growth in all the scientific research that has taken place over the past century, and the significant ways that women now take on leadership roles in all the sciences.

  • In Tongues sculpture 30.5 x 11.5 x 11.5 As a metal artist, my artistic evolution has been a journey of discovery and refinement, where experimentation with techniques and materials has shaped my unique voice. From the initial spark of inspiration to the careful execution of each piece, my process involves a thoughtful exploration of form and meaning. I am dedicated to pushing the boundaries of metal as an artistic medium. This journey reflects the enduring power of creativity, drawing on a diverse range of ideas and inspirations. Some elements are rooted in the past, inspired by old drawings and childhood memories, while others emerge from new emotions. Through my work, I aim to forge connections through my creations, transforming metal into vessels of emotion that resonate with viewers.

  • The Echoes they tried to blur acrylic on canvas 30 x 24 The echoes of her voice are persistent, like history refusing to disappear. Her voice is layered into the foundation of democracy. Layered memory maps and circular forms like echoes, wombs, halos, votes cast and recast. There is motion and a veil as if something essential is being obscured yet still pushing through. Legacy embedded in systems. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • Dreams watercolor 11 x 14 framed size: 21 x 14 As a former dancer, I strive to capture the beauty of the human form and its graceful movements. My primary media is water based to allow for transparency and fluidity in capturing the figure.

  • Woman Warrior In Abstract. Rhythms of Color mixed media 17.5 x 12.5 framed size: 23.5 x 19 Woman Warrior in Abstract is a drawing that explores the evolving role of women in modern society. It has a vibrant, abstract, and dynamic composition. It features a variety of shapes and colors that create a sense of movement and balance. The central female figure is dressed in a stylized medieval armor outfit, incorporating elements of a sword, a vest structure, and a helmet. Posed like a riding horse, she evokes the image of a fearless knight symbolizing courage and readiness to confront challenges. The blue wave surrounding her head represents feminine energy and sensitivity. Together, these elements highlight the harmony between power and emotion that defines contemporary womanhood.

  • Posterity acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas 40 x 30 The preamble mentions "...promote the general welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.." The loving sacrifice many of us have made as mothers is essential for posterity. In our quest to "do it all" we often forget the importance of our role as mothers in shaping the future of our people.

  • Remember the ladies... printmaking 10 x 8 framed size: 16 x 14 “Remember the ladies..." references women's rights and what women have to bring to the table in protecting our democracy and humanity. The quote is from Abigail Adams' famous 1776 letter to John Adams, urging him to consider women's rights while forming the new nation. When the Declaration proclaimed "unalienable rights," "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness," and "consent of the governed," these principles did not extend to women. Over the past 250 years, women — leaders, creators, and changemakers have fought to make these words real. Their impact resonates still and impels us forward—to secure our democracy and the rule of law, and to build a more inclusive and humane society. The image, a protective, nurturing gesture of holding something precious in one's lap, combined with those fundamental values, creates a powerful visual metaphor. The woman becomes a guardian of these principles. The monoprint process, putting transmuted ideas and feelings onto a Gelli plate, not knowing what will adhere, amplifies the uncertainty of the future. The layering implies the persistent courage, creativity, and grit that the women before us have inspired as we continue our work.

  • A Place By The Fire For Everyone sculpture 20 x 18 x 3 Narrative found object assemblage wall-relief sculpture inspired by a lyric from the song "I Want A House With A Crowded Table" by the Highwomen.

  • She Spoke Up XI, Carrie Chapman Catt charcoal 22 x 30 framed size: 28 x 35.75 The ‘She Spoke Up’ series began as a reaction to the destructive and inflamed political and social climates. With the cascading revelations of the Me Too movement, centennial anniversary of the adoption of the 19th Amendment, surreal landscape of the Covid pandemic, unrelenting flood of lies and misinformation, and the incessant assault on democracy by our elected politicians, I chose to elevate the work and words of women who have spoken truth to power, pursued freedom and equity, amplified truths at great personal cost and transformed the broader world. Their contributions, stories and lives are often obscured, forgotten or deliberately contradicted. Collectively the series stands as a response to endemic misogyny, racism, sexism and obstruction. Birds, symbolizing keen vision, spirituality, and freedom, are potent symbols of humanity’s hopes and dreams. I integrated specific bird imagery into each work, finding their symbolism often uncannily mirrored the characteristics of each woman. Falcons symbolize endurance survival, victory; wisdom, methodical hard work, rising above challenging situations and success. The series reflects on struggles and inequities of the past, underscores fundamental challenges that still exist, highlights transformative achievements of intelligent, courageous women, commemorates the truth of their words and work, and suggests possible tomorrows.

  • Break the Line- Step Outside to See the Light Mixed Media on Arches Oil Paper Mounted 35 x 26 framed size: 36.5 x 27.5 We’re each born into a specific time and location, with its own set of cultural norms, struggles, and realities. As a woman, I’ve found myself trying to untangle these while facing nostalgia and partaking in personal reckoning. My works on paper have become a visual representation of the questioning dialogue I have with those who have come before me, those who are here, and those who will come. I utilize line to draw and redefine figures, while spray paint, gouache, and oil paint are brushed through them to destabilize them. This visual representation of the disruptive mechanisms that shape our lives is repeated, creating a layered, unfinished look. Like a palimpsest, my surfaces reveal traces of unresolved figures or partially obscured ones; I believe the challenges women face make it difficult to reach their full potential. Nostalgia is a lie, and our future depends on today. In this work, Break the Line, Step Outside to See the Light, I question traditional roles and contemplate the women who have dared to break tradition and step outside. In today’s attack on women’s rights and independence, breaking the line is more important than ever.

  • Are You Listening? archival pigment print on paper 16 x 12 framed size: 20 x 16 This photography reminds us of the sacrifices of the Greatest Generation fighting for our freedoms and our right to vote.

  • Marching in Their Shadow graphite 10.25 x 13.5 framed size: 15 x 18.25 My friends, my son, daughter in law, and her family marched in the first two women's marches in Seneca Falls to protest Trump's presidency. The first year we were able to go in to the museum and I was impressed by the statue, First Wave. I decided to add ghost images of some of the statue behind our images. Being from Rochester, these men and women are not ever far from mind. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • On the Eve of Apocalypse oil 24 x 18 framed size: 28 x 22 This painting is dedicated to my great-grandmother Anna. Anna and her husband lived in Siberia. They were a wealthy family from the upper class. In 1917, the Russian Revolution took place and civil war began. The communist Bolsheviks who came to power killed the rich and took away their property. Anna survived, but she was left alone, without a husband and without any money. I don't know exactly how my great-grandmother overcame this nightmare, but I know that she continued to live alone, still living her life with dignity. She didn't ask for help, she offered it. I know very little about her, but that doesn't make her resilience any less significant. She fell from a rich and predictable life into a poor and destitute one, but remained a person of dignity and faith. The background on which Anna is depicted is a symbolic image of her native Siberian city as it was before the Revolution, on the eve of Apocalypse.

  • Conversation photography: wrapped canvas print 18 x 12 Frederick Franck's sculpture, dedicated to the Great Law of the Six Nations Iroquois Confederacy, stands overlooking Boulder Hot Springs, Montana. The nested silhouettes progressing from light to shadow visualize intergenerational responsibility—each generation emerging from and containing the next. This meditation on collective continuity honors Indigenous women's foundational contributions to democratic governance, reminding us that women's civic voice has always been essential to forging pathways toward inclusive democracy.

  • Conversation watercolor 30 x 22 framed size: 38.5 x 31 "Conversation" came to me as we were experiencing the pandemic. People were isolated and, in many cases, not able to speak to each other in person. As I painted, the skirt felt like a flag unfurling to encompass a dialogue among many people. I began to think about the wider meaning of this image as it related to a founding principle of this country. This great experiment called the United States of America was born of immigrants escaping a monarchy to live in freedom. Women of every color and creed--an underserved, underestimated, and overlooked population--constituted the spine of our nation, working tirelessly to shore up their families. They developed their own networks of communication, which eventually became systematized and even voted into law. The woman depicted here contains multitudes--depicted in her skirt, under the "flag" of protected speech.

  • The Weight of Liberty oil 36 x 24 framed size: 37 x 28 A figure shaped by the long passage of American history and by the demands placed upon the ideals she represents. Since her arrival in the late nineteenth century, Liberty has stood at the nation’s threshold as a presence associated with aspiration, refuge, and civic promise. Across generations, her form has absorbed movement, conflict, and change, gathering responsibility and endurance into a single enduring figure. Conceived as a woman, her image has carried layered meaning through time, shaped by use, expectation, and memory. In this work, Liberty bears visible signs of passage. Her surface appears worn and fractured, marked by strain and accumulation. The lowered head conveys gravity and inward attention, a posture shaped through duration and responsibility. The flame is held downward and close to the body, suggesting care, protection, and sustained watchfulness. The figure stands upright, grounded in weight and continuity, carrying history forward through presence and bearing. The work considers the persistent role of women in sustaining shared ideals through responsibility, labor, and continuity across generations. Liberty appears as an active presence shaped by those who uphold her, carrying a charge that remains ongoing and entrusted forward.

  • Women Voting digital 13 x 18 framed size: 14.25 x 19.25 My own grandmother was born in 1912, before women in America were allowed to vote. I based this artwork on a historic 1912 American Press Association photograph that is now in the public domain, of a suffrage parade in New York City. I am inspired that public demonstrations such as this one were an effective part of the broad picture in securing women’s right to vote, as well as the fact that the baby pictured in this image is of a similar age as my own grandmother. I don’t take for granted the hard-won rights women have gained just within a few generations, and realize the efforts continue to this day. This image celebrates the many women who fought to win the right to vote. My creative process utilized mixed media including digital media, pen and ink, and digital printing on watercolor paper, as I made intuitive decisions about distortion, visual closure, white space, pattern, and line. I grew up through and beyond the digital revolution, and am comfortable using digital media in the same manner one might use a graphite pencil or a paintbrush – it is just another tool for artmaking, in my opinion.

  • In Memoriam charcoal, ink, watercolor on paper 25 x 25 framed size: 36 x 36 In Memoriam by Linda McCune is a somber even ghostly image of lilies of remembrance for an unnamed, contributing multitude of women who are not famous in the sense that we know their names or faces, laude their achievements, and record much of their lives. In the 250 years that we are celebrating this year, an estimated 235 million women have been born in this country, based on this number of years 250 have been selected by USA Today and categorized by founders, suffragist and reformers, trailblazers and leaders, and of modern era importance. Indeed, these should be highly regarded an acknowledged. However, my mind wandered to the scant history of my mother, grandmothers, great grandmothers multiplied by thousands of women, each with an importance unrecognized in this celebrated public way. As the movement in my drawing suggests, they amazingly pushed women’s collective history forward daily as an unseen force amidst much gender bias and I wanted to acknowledge their lives as if I had taken this bouquet to each funeral.

  • Mary Fields sculpture 25 x 14 x 13 I was reading about relatively unknown African Americans, and I came across Mary Fields. I wanted to capture her essence in sculpture, and worked from a few photos. She was a freed slave who made her way by working for a convent, running a laundry, a stagecoach driver, and the first woman US mail carrier. She was 6 foot tall, cigar smoking, gun toting, and dressed in men's clothing, but always wore a white apron. Her one concession to being a woman. She was tough and no one messed with her.

  • Haro of Sorrows - goodbyes sculpture 25 x 16 x 9 I am of Irish descent. My great grandparents emigrated in 1855 from Ireland to the US (upstate New York) because of the potato famine. The sculpture is symbolic of the Irish diaspora. One side the family is waving goodbye to a family member leaving on a boat. The other side is a woman who signed up to be an indentured servant in the new land. She is looking through the sails as her family recedes in the distance.

  • Women Series一 Body Memory • Emergence oil on board 24 x 20 28 x 24 Body Memory is a group within the Women series, initiated in 2015, marking the beginning and ongoing development of my exploration of women’s experience and states of being. Rather than depicting specific female figures, the works consider women as a continuously unfolding state of being. The body becomes a vessel of time, where experience, emotion, and social roles accumulate, endure, and are preserved. From 2015 to the present, time itself has become part of the work. Body memory is not only a record of lived experience, but also a formation of women’s voices—persisting across past, present, and future, and continuously participating in and shaping “the people” themselves.

  • Fill in the Blank watercolor 24 x 24 I have embraced an ancient art form and through the depiction of contemporary subject matter I have made it my own while respecting its traditions. My work focuses on people of the streets. I don’t intrude on their lives, I don’t photograph them, nor do I sketch them, when I paint them, something about their energy, their chi, has locked into my minds’ eye and it comes out my brush. Sumi-e, works the soft contemplative tones of sumi ink with the unique construction of handmade paper and eastern watercolors, creating an image that provides a space for the viewer to reflect. What my work “says” is not fixed, it is left open to the sensibility of each person that stands before it. In this way my work resonates with the spirit of sumi-e, not by imitating tradition, but by capturing a sense of life’s impermanence, fragility and hope.

  • Ella's Legacy mixed media 12 x 12 14 x 14 My dad loved Jazz, and I grew up listening to Jazz legends. I remember the sound before I learned their names. Ella Fitzgerald was The Voice. For me her legacy stands in the sound of her free roaming voice liberating and powerful. A voice beyond social structure and politics. A voice that is uniting and groundbreaking at the same time, appealing to our human nature. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Alice Paul: The Right to Be Counted oil on canvas 18 x 14 This painting honors Alice Paul, a visionary suffragette whose quiet determination helped reshape the American promise. As a principal architect of the 19th Amendment, Paul devoted her life to the radical belief that democracy must include women—not as an afterthought, but as equals. Positioned before the U.S. Capitol and framed by the American flag, Alice Paul stands not in the shadows of history, but in its full light. The ballot being cast beside her is both an action and an echo—a gesture that carries the weight of decades of protest, imprisonment, hunger strikes, and unwavering resolve. It represents a right not bestowed, but claimed. Rather than portraying Paul as a distant historical icon, this work seeks to capture her humanity: her composure, her resolve, and her faith in a future she knew she might never fully see. The monumental structure behind her contrast with her calm presence, underscoring a central truth of American progress—that lasting change often begins with individuals willing to stand, persist, and endure. Created to mark the nation’s 250th anniversary, this painting invites reflection on the unfinished nature of American freedom. Alice Paul’s legacy reminds us that the ideals enshrined at the country’s founding were expanded not through ease or consensus, but through courage. Her story asks us to consider whose voices have shaped the nation, whose were silenced, and how the act of participation itself remains both a right and a responsibility.

  • Thalamian Rower on the Trireme Olympias printmaking 14 x 11 framed size: 22 x 18 Thalamian Rower on the Trireme “Olympias” is a self-portrait as a rower on the replica of an ancient Greek trireme, which I rowed as a member of the 200 person crew for an archaeological experiment in 1988 in the Aegean Sea. The thalamian rowers were mostly women for this project due to our smaller stature, having to fit on the lowest level however we were strong enough to wield the 40lb oars for periods of 20-30 minutes. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Her Unshaded oil 36 x 24 framed size: 39 x 27 Her Unshaded is an art statement commemorating the evolution of women's involvement in American history from the signing of the Declaration of Independence, a moment when women were excluded from political life, to the future being shaped by female voice, knowledge, and leadership. The past has been shaded, with an actual shade at the top of the image and by use of books written during the period on women's lives. There is a painting of a woman of color beginning to rise. Her posture and gaze represent knowledge long held but historically concealed. At the base of the work, coded tags invite the viewer to engage digitally through their smartphones. The links lead to a contemporary art project lead by the artist through her young art students who were asked a single question: What gift would you give to the world if you could give anything? One link goes to their artistically created videos and another to an open source page in Wikipedia, "Timeline of Women's Suffrage in the United States". By integrating historical artifacts, figurative representation and contemporary participation, Her Unshaded connects past, present and future. Women continue to rock our political world.

  • Petticoats and Pickett Signs encaustic 12 x 9 Suffragettes may seem like ancient history but voting rights are not as stable or guaranteed as we may believe, even in the USA. This series of three images chronicle the ongoing strife. Women secured their vote after much suffering and resistance in 1920. They were dressed in their finest in a time when petticoats were still part of fashion. Black men were granted the right to vote via ratification in 1870 but faced violence and intimidation at the polls. It was not until 1965 in the advent of the Civil Rights movement and the Voting Rights Act before all people regardless of race or gender were promised the true right to vote. Men and women linked arms and marched together. Tragically in 2018, Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida was another site in a horrific trend of school shootings. Here the students rebelled against the false comfort of “thoughts and prayers”. They rallied and protested on a level never seen before. They called for safer gun laws. Never Again MSD foundation was formed by survivor Emma Gonzales. This threat started a movement to change the voting age from 18 to 20 to prevent this impassioned and articulate group of young people from making a stand with their vote. They gathered in blue t-shirts with simple white lettering: Parkland. No further explanation needed.

  • Between the Lines acrylic, ink, graphite, image transfer, and thread on paper 15 x 15 framed size: 21 x 21 Created in commemoration of the 250th anniversary of American independence, Between the Lines honors the ways women have shaped democracy through collective care and shared resilience. Based on the Log Cabin quilt pattern, traditionally symbolizing hearth, home, and safe shelter, the work draws on the legend of Underground Railroad quilts as emblems of protection and guidance. Torn and reassembled paper fragments are stitched into a quilt-like field, proposing democracy as a living structure sustained not only by historic declarations, but by the solidarity, dignity, and strength passed from one generation to the next.

  • Melly's Way acrylic 36 x 24 framed size: 40 x 28 Melly's Way is a very personal piece for me. Melly is short for Meldgonde, my mother. The last three years of her life she suffered from dementia and I took care of her. The painting has a two fold meaning, it both describes her temperament of all the years I knew her even when she was sane and fully functioning and her years of decline. The painting also captures both her inner turmoil and chaos as well as mine. We see a woman leaving her home in a frightful storm with her purse and her scarf, she wanders pretty far away and the scarf lifts from her head into the wind. The expression of bewilderment and distress is not coming from the dark storm around her but rather from the loss of that piece of cloth. To me, this was also a moment that encapsulated all the craziness we felt around her whether good or bad or whether in youth or old age. Though I did not know it at the time the work was cathartic for me. In addition, the theme of many of my works are about global climatic change and the danger it poses for us all. I included that theme as well as my own personal feelings. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Risk Ahead collage with acrylic on Bristol board 13 x 10 framed size: 20 x 16 Alice Andrews Higbee Mathis (1695 – 1784), widow, became the wife of John “The Great Mathis”, a land developer in Little Egg Harbor, New Jersey in 1716. A Quaker of the Tuckerton area, she is recorded as being dark-haired and dark-complexed, strong-minded, possessing unusual business talents, and was reportedly a greater land speculator than her husband. She was fairly educated and wrote a good hand. In this mixed-media monotype, she is surrounded by the colors of war – the stripes of the flag of the colonies, the blood of the families, her hands the color of lost soldiers, her face the determined life force of the Revolution. John and Alice loaned money to the struggle for freedom and were repaid in Continental paper, which proved worthless. They rallied and continued to prosper, leaving a legacy of freedom and lands to their heirs. She was my 6th great-grandmother, and this likeness is based on a mid 1800s tintype of her great-great-granddaughter Martha Mathis, my 2nd great -grandmother.

  • Risk Ahead collage with acrylic on Bristol board 8 x 5 framed size: 14 x 11 I feel that we are at a crossroads in this country and that the path that we take will have great bearing on our future. I wanted to depict a young girl at a fork in the road. The sign alerts her to pay attention and to proceed with care. To me, the network of roads symbolize the complexities and the uncertainties that lie ahead for our younger generation.

  • Not So Delicate Flowers mixed media 20 x 20 This image is silent, though filled with voices. A thick crowd had amassed on that cold, windy day in 2018. We didn’t feel unsafe. We listened to speakers who delivered warnings of what would come if we gave up the fight. Someone asked to take our photo, and a few hours later, we learned that we had become the faces of National Geographic for the Women’s March. We exercised the empowerment of our triad, utilized our rights to speak up against hate, and with the help of a friendly stranger, our message made its way to southern Haiti within hours. Our signs were shaped with intention, and filled with love to remind those who saw them that above all, we can live our lives without identifiers - except family. We represent what love look like, no matter where we were born, no matter what our language is. We don’t look like one another, and we find that to be beautiful. We laugh together. We argue together. We work together, lending more hands to lighten the load. This piece is a reminder to dare to hope. To look fear in the eye and conquer hatred. We have seen what fear and hatred can do - tear people and things apart. Love and hope can do so much more.

  • They Went in Anyway mixed media 22 x 30 framed size: 24 x 32 THEY WENT IN ANYWAY This drawing honors the eleven young women of the group known as The Norfolk 17. These were Black students who, in February 1959, integrated six previously all-white public schools in Norfolk, Virginia, after months of school closures enforced under the state’s policy of “Massive Resistance.” In defiance of the Brown v. Board of Education ruling, Virginia chose to deny education rather than desegregate. The students depicted are: Top row: Johnnie Rouse, Patricia Turner, Carol Wellington, Olivia Driver, Lolita Portis Middle row: Delores Johnson, LaVera Forbes, Geraldine Talley Bottom row: Betty Jean Reed, Claudia Wellington, Patricia Godbolt Out of 151 Black applicants subjected to deliberately discriminatory testing and interviews, only seventeen were admitted. The majority were girls. Supported by churches and the NAACP, these young women entered schools where they faced daily threats, spitting, physical assaults, and profound isolation. Yet they persisted, understanding that their presence carried consequences far beyond their own lives. Rather than depicting spectacle or confrontation, this work focuses on their composure, dignity, and collective strength. Their courage forced the reopening of Norfolk’s public schools and contributed to the nation’s ongoing struggle toward educational equity. These young women were not only students—they were agents of change, embodying the civic power at the heart of She the People.

  • She Who Endures watercolor 14 x 13 framed size: 24 x 23 She Who Endures What I love about working with watercolor is its unique freshness, its clean sparkle, clarity and luminosity. Every painting has the potential to emerge as a celebration of the medium. I especially enjoy experimenting with color, and with many layers of glazing, creating harmonious mixes, using veils of color to produce subtle changes and fine nuances in my work. Each painting becomes a learning process, a fascination with what will happen as I walk along its path. Each painting has its own vibration, its own energy. Every success becomes very precious because with watercolor, one can never repeat any part of the work in exactly the same way.

  • In Cissy's Eyes watercolor 10.5 x 13.5 framed size: 20 x 24 In Cissy's Eyes This painting is of my cousin at the age of about 3. It was taken from a very old and weathered photo, probably taken in 1949. It was the look in Cissy's eyes which inspired me to create this portrait.

  • I Am A Woman photography 36 x 24 I AM WOMEN, NOT A HOST On June 24, 2022, when Roe v. Wade was overturned, thousands gathered in New York City in urgent protest. I stood not only as a witness, but as a participant, using my camera as both instrument and voice. These two images form a single statement. On the front of her body, the words I Am Woman declare identity, autonomy, and presence. On her back, Not a Host confronts the reduction of women to vessels. Together, they hold the tension between visibility and erasure, power and vulnerability. Photographed in the surge of collective resistance, this woman’s body became both canvas and proclamation. She carries the language of protest on her skin, transforming flesh into testimony. Presented in Seneca Falls, where the women’s rights movement first took organized form, these images connect past to present. They ask what has changed, what remains fragile, and how we continue to stand — visible, embodied, and unyielding.

  • Julia Ann watercolor with collaged watercolor 24 x 18 framed size: 25 x 19 Julia Ann was born at the end of the Civil War. She married when she was 15 years of age and had her first child at 18. Julia Ann and her husband had thirteen children; twelve lived to adulthood. During her lifetime, women could not own property and could not vote. It is hard to imagine how many diapers she washed or how she grew and cooked enough food while keeping the household running. Family stories include how she refused to learn to drive, even after the family owned a car. She made extra household income by selling butter and eggs to neighbors, delivering them by horse-drawn surrey. Stories are told of how she made deliveries quickly, frequently turning down conversations and gossip to get to her next delivery.
