• Who Do You Love? oil on canvas
    Size of Piece: 30 x 24 x 1
    Artwork 1: A young woman leans toward her reflection, kissing herself in the mirror. The image speaks not only of solitude, but of the eternal human desire to be seen and loved. In today’s world, the phrase “love yourself” is repeated endlessly-sometimes as healing wisdom, sometimes as a shallow slogan. Is self-embrace the beginning of true connection, or a sign of how distant we have grown from one another? The mirror becomes a symbol of both intimacy and isolation. And it asks us all, in the quiet of our own hearts: Who Do You Love? Artwork 2: Aphrodite, the ancient Greek goddess of love, beauty, and desire, embodies both passion and grace. Born from the sea foam, she symbolizes the power of attraction, creativity, and the eternal force of love that connects all beings.

  • oil on canvas 40 x 30 x 1.5"
    This painting was inspired by the flowers on the tropical brugmansia plant I have been overwintering for years and abstractly by images of the galaxy in which we are a part. Drawing inspiration from the vibrant community of life in my garden, my flowers invite universal questions of existence and purpose in their quest for survival, eventual senescence, and rebirth. The merging of the visions of space with the identifiable floral images by using transparent glazing between the micro and macro visions symbolizes the interconnectedness and fragility of all life, underscoring the need for open discourse to ensure universal survival.

  • 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.

  • Exposure printmaking: akua ink on arnheim paper 24 x 18 My work explores themes of perception, identity, and cultural norms. Since the pandemic, I have been incorporating masks, braille, hair, sandpaper, veils, hijabs and materials of everyday life in a series of monotypes entitled "Who Sees?" to explore how we hide or reveal ourselves. How do we perceive women or men when they are veiled or masked? Are they disempowered or empowered? Do the masks/veils offer freedom or protection or bondage? The images that I create are multilayered, pushing us to delve deeper into this subject. “Who Sees” simultaneously draws you in and pushes you away.

  • Antique Apple Harvest pastel 18 x 22 I worked hard to raise these apples and when I picked them, I was so pleased I had to paint them.

  • The Falconi Twins (Second Violin, Principal Viola) photo and pigmented beeswax combines on Kozo and wood panel 36 x 24 I create visual biographies honoring communities whose narratives have been marginalized, erased, or never recorded. "The Falconi Twins" portrays the resilience of two women from my childhood town who defied societal expectations in the 1970s. These women lived together, posed as twin sisters, and dressed identically to evade the scrutiny of the conservative community. In truth, they were a gay couple seeking refuge in a world that struggled to accept them for who they truly were. This portrait is a fusion of orphaned vintage photographs, my photographs, abstract drawings, and antique ephemera in subtle layers of pigmented beeswax on Kozo. I replicated a solitary figure to create a twin, etched intricate patterns and sgraffito onto the platform, balustrade, and figures to weave a narrative of secrets and shared experiences that remain unreadable to outsiders. This is a portrait of the power of love, resilience, and enduring bonds. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Theo Makes the Right Decision mixed media: photo and pigmented beeswax combines on Kozo and wood panel 20 x 16 History comes to us incomplete, in fragments, half-remembered stories, and voices never fully heard. In response, I create fictional visual biographies that honor lives that exist at the edges of recorded history. Each portrait is an act of imaginative witnessing, making space for moments that might have been or should have been. Each of these mixed media works is composed of intricate layers of pigmented beeswax, photographs, and abstract drawings. The photographic elements are a fusion of reclaimed and reimagined vintage photographs, with my own photographs that I combine and repurpose to add narrative texture. This layered process mirrors how we access memory; peering through time with imperfect clarity, discovering the way identity is constructed, concealed, and recovered across generations.

  • Under Lock and Key charcoal on paper 24 x 18 Under Lock and Key reflects a state of emotional guardedness—the instinct to remain closed off out of fear of vulnerability and harm. The composition is deliberately constrained within an elongated vertical oval, echoed by a custom mat and enclosed within a metal frame, creating a physical and visual barrier that separates the viewer from the image. At the same time, there is an underlying sense of resilience. The sharp, unyielding forms suggest a kind of steadfastness—an ability to hold one’s ground without wavering. This tension between protection and endurance speaks to the complexity of self-preservation: the ways we shield ourselves, and the strength it takes to withstand what presses against us.

  • Mixed Media Blue Girl Size: 30 x 24 These two paintings are part of a series of Blue Paintings I have done over the years. So this is not really a “Blue Period” a la Picasso, but a sustained interest in returning to blue over the years, from time to time. “Blue Girl” can be said to sustain one reading of the idea of blue, as in waking up with the blues, and going to bed that way too. “Blues Bird” refers to the idea of blue in its “blues music” musical context, which can include joy and vitality. “Blues Bird” also expresses my interest in texture and mixed media in my paintings, although I also think “Blue Girl” is also a painting that includes a sense of texture.

  • Stone Soul acrylic on found wood, found stone 13 x 7 x 7 I am attracted to working with found objects, and have eventually created quite a few found assemblages as a result. I believe they are sometimes called objet trouvé —and I agree with the consensus that what I like is the way I can take discarded objects and can transform and recontextualize and give new life and new aesthetic value. I especially like the way the “real” is transformed into the “surreal” through my creative process.

  • Drumming Hands photography: digitally enhanced 20 x 16 Drumming Hands When taking this photo of a Gullah drummer, I purposely set a slow shutter speed to capture the blurred movement of the hands, while keeping everything else in the photo in focus. The hands display strength, endurance, and power, all attributes of the enslaved Gullah Geechee people. Originating from African traditions, music and drumming continue to be fundamental aspects of Gullah Geechee culture.

  • Looking Back photograph 11 x 14 Looking Back (photography) A friend invites me to her garden to photograph anytime I wish. As a wildlife photographer, I enjoy watching and photographing the mallards in her cypress pond. The ducks are quite tame and my presence doesn't bother them. Mallards have more than 11,000 feathers, and when this male mallard struck a pose, I was able to capture many of those feathers, including his distinctive curled tail feathers. The mallard's flexible neck anatomy allows it to rotate its head 180 degrees. When I took this photo, the mallard turned his head to look back over his body, which created a more unique photo. (Equipment/Settings: Nikon D850, 1/1600, f5, ISO 400) Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Turning and turning in the widening gyre collage: painted paper mounted on paper 11 x 7.5 My daily practice is to create a small collage every morning on awakening. Each is different, using different papers; some papers are painted like the ones used in this artwork, others are cut from magazines. The title is the first line of W.B. Yeats "The Second Coming". The work of daily practice makes it possible to face the day, which is filled with bad news at home an abroad.

  • Edith oil on Wood Panel 4 x 4 Portraits are immeasurably fascinating to me for their breadth of expression. They can articulate an expansive language of mood and atmosphere. They can convey intent, brashness or delicacy, anxiety or hesitation. A viewer can vicariously venture into the realm of a face to invent a story about a person. I wanted to make these portraits in a miniature scale, so to bring a viewer close in proximity to the individual moods of each woman. They are intimate in scale yet vigorously alive with thick paint. Each portrait is 4" X 4", oil on wood panel. Painted with tiny brushes, the portraits of these women nevertheless remain hugely present. They reflect an unshakable vitality immersed in atmospheric spaces. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • My Summer Friend watercolor, Inks, oil sticks, sgraffito on clayboard 14 x 11 Each summer, I return to my homeland and spend five weeks drawing and painting my natural surroundings and its creatures, especially the sheep on the Nature Reserve behind our house. Clayboard is particularly suitable for showing the various textures because it takes almost any medium. Rhys the Ram and his ewes are quite tame because they are used to people, so it is a pleasurable experience. This work is my attempt to keep what time has already taken.

  • Deconstruction mixed media: oil paint, ink, letter stamps, torn paper 40 x 16 An intuitive painter, here I combined my poetry and imagery.

  • Hot Nights, Bright Lights: Pool 1 oil on canvas 24 x 24 Much of my work explores the transformative effect of light on the ordinary. This nocturne plays off the idea of “reflection,” evoking the nostalgia of swimming on warm summer nights. Bright, scattered lights shimmer across the pool’s surface, mirrored through water-blurred vision, where perception softens and shifts. The perspective bends as if seen through the eyes of a child suspended at the surface, where even a small pool expands into something vast, mysterious, and immersive. Angles double, textures ripple, and light fragments into a dreamlike interplay of color and motion. In this space between clarity and distortion, memory and sensation merge—creating a quiet, luminous fantasy that captures the fleeting magic of a night swim. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • Ink, pastel, and color pencil on paper 40 x 22.5 in.   Ever since antiquity, astronomers have studied the 13 phases of Venus, from her rise as the morning star, to her descent into invisibility, and her re-emergence in the evening sky. These phases occur over a 19-month cycle, marking both a physical and a spiritual passage. I expressed each phase in a different work. The journey begins with Inception, passing through Gestation, Birth, Emergence towards Fullness and Self-Discovery. Then Immersion and Transmutation are followed by Rebirth, Remembering, Wholeness, Completion. My inspiration was a found ledger of observations of the 1874 Transit of Venus, a phenomenon occurring every 243 years when the planet moves across the face of the sun.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
