oil on linen 24 x 36 x 1.5" This painting is inspired by my walks with my dog Bodhi. He's a spirited energetic animal so it was a rare opportunity to catch him in a contemplative moment In this painting, I feel that Bodhi is enjoying nature in a similar way to me, but with different sensations, including his exquisite sense of smell, and touch. The painting reflects my sense that as humans, we are part of nature, and having an experience with a different species can enhance our appreciation of the world around us.

watercolor & gouache on polypropylene 27.25 x 33.25 x 1.5" The Italian word “capriccio” has various definitions: playful; whimsical; fanciful notion; an instrumental free form composition, usually lively in tempo and brilliant in style; characterized by unpredictable, sudden turns and changes were my muses for this painting. If ever a word described the Italian spirit, this is that word. It is the word that inspired the playground of the Roman emperors – Capri. “Capriccio” expresses all the definitions simultaneously. Using only the elements of art in a non-narrative composition afforded me the opportunity to take a capriciously joyful approach in my artistic interpretation of the word and the joyful Italian spirit and overall approach to life.

collage on canvas 24 x 18 x 1" When I was working on this series I felt that these faces starring back at me were powerful and fierce and I wondered where was I going with these images. They slowly evolved by the addition of several symbolic images- Crosses, Birds & feathers. Crosses dividing the face - We are all two spirits the good and evil, the yes & no. Birds - I put birds on the eyes- Birds eye view of life! They are soaring through the sky with their eyes wide open! I like the old saying “See the soul through ones eyes” Feathers: In different Native American communities, the feather has many different meanings. It represents wisdom, spirituality, honor, respect, energy and also represents the sky and air.

cast handmade paper wall sculpture 96 x 96 x 14" I am fascinated with the topography of landscapes, full of complex lines shapes, colors and textures. I create staged landscapes defined by human presence. With forced perspective I invite the viewer to enter my landscapes of Illusions and fantasy. Playing with the mind, scale, pocket openings, and crevices evoke a sensibility of self in-space. A call for a consciousness.

paste & ink on Arches paper 42 x 108" Quoddy I was created in the summer of 2022. I drove to downeast Lubec, Maine and over several days, I made ten "walk and draw" studies as I explored the trail there. There is a strong Japanese inspiration here in the simplified shapes. At the same time, in almost a cubist manner, I combine different views into one sweeping, overall view. The sunset in the back shows this shift of time and color. I also add Japanese kanji into the piece, to flatten the space and add eternal meanings. The ink is added after blending 20 layers of pastel.

acrylic 20 x 16" Bold hydrangeas always attract my attention. For this painting, I was inspired by dappled late afternoon sunlight falling among hydrangea blooms. Warm colors capture the fleeting late summer sun. Already a few leaves gather at the base of the steps, suggesting the change of seasons. The iconic green striped awnings and door hark back many decades, adding a sense of timelessness to this cottage near Alexandria Bay, New York. On a whim, I added a single hydrangea peeking from the window on the left to balance the composition and suggest the owner's touch.

acrylic painting 40 x 30 x 1.5" My freehand, hard-edged abstract, sculptural form floats within a harmonized color field. I created my color pair with techniques used by figurative painters to give atmospheric perspective to landscapes and depth to objects in space. Can you sense the depth? Sentinel is a regal abstraction, placidly on guard. My signature tiny golden heart rests on the underside of the canvas, a talisman of joy, hope, and love. I varnished her with a matte finish. A minimal white wooden float frame and a small portal to view the golden heart can be added to this painting.

wood 11 x 10 x 8" I am a gatherer. Fallen wood waits for me. Sticks, twigs, branches, and bark fill my arms and backpack while hiking.

oil 30 x 24 x 2" I am fascinated by light reflected on glass and water. One of my goals is to be able to render it impressionistically in oil paint.

acrylic on canvas 20 x 20 x .5" Statement for new works. Layering and revealing what is underneath is the basis of this new direction in my painting.

Striping gradually evolved as a device to create a surface layer that must be penetrated to find the hidden core, the third dimension in a two dimensional work.

unique photo transfer technique with intaglio print 21 x 17" My husband and I went to a fundraiser for the Litchfield Jazz Camp in Connecticut, and there was a young man playing with the adults in the ensemble that was entertaining. I was so impressed with his playing that I took a few photos. I have used this unique photo transfer technique, which mimics aquatint (sort of- not purely of course), because I like the texture and unpredictability of it. I created a drypoint intaglio plate to superimpose over the photo transfer, and this is the result. There is jazz music around me all the time, so musical themes are some of the subject matter in my artwork. I enjoy the challenge of showing something purely aural in a visual way.

watercolors and fluid acrylics 24 x 28 x 1" This “Ghost story…” epitomizes the perpetuity of time’. A woman's experiences flow like water.

Tenaciously, we live and as we tally up experiences, adapting our stories to make our lives work, our memories resiliently swing from the past to become optical illusions for the present.

monotype 21.5 x 17.5" My piece "Wandering Triangle" is one of a series of monotypes where I have experimented with movement and abstraction. Monotypes are often called "the painters's print" because they are a free, easy and fluid technique. People have often commented on how much directional motion they observe in both my prints and paintings. This may emerge from the fact that I am a dancer in addition to being a visual artist. In this case, the triangle subject seems to take a multi-dimensional journey as we all do in life.

watercolor and mixed media 18 x 14 x 1" I am an abstract painter, and I work primarily in watercolors with mixed media elements. I’m inspired by the interplay of colors, shapes, and uneven lines, and I love the fluid, unpredictable nature of watercolor paints. I work very intuitively: I always have a starting point - a particular color combination or focal point - but then I just go wherever inspiration leads me, often surprising myself! Painting is the best therapy I know. It brings me peace, balance, and joy, and it helps me maintain an even keel in our uncertain times. My Blue Heaven is a reminder to find intentional moments of gratitude.

acrylic 21 x 17 x 1" I have always been interested in the stories of women who create. Whatever the medium is--poetry, fiction, non-fiction, painting, sculpture, music--wherever the muse takes them. My own artistic career has been varied, with writing fiction, non-fiction (journalism) and painting taking precedence. A passion for photography has led to an interest in expressionistic portraiture, using photographs of artists, past and present, as a springboard for my own painting. Some believe that a photograph lies as it only captures a moment but what can be read in that moment has helped me in my own search for the truth behind the image., which has led to my Strong Women series.

photograph 26 x 26 x 1.5" Inspired by Andy Warhol, the range of expressions in this quad was captured through conversation while exploring the idea, What is Female?

cast concrete, reclaimed materials, and pigments 3.75 x 10 x 2" In an attempt to adapt to the onslaught of changes being done to the environment by humans, nature is increasingly creating hybrid forms that fuse the man-made with the natural. These hybrids, like many of products we consume, are simultaneously compelling and toxic. Using these new life forms as inspiration, I create uncanny forms intended to suggest an animated fusion of the organic and the industrial. All of these fusions represent an artificial reality that is a hallmark of our anthropocene age. My work is an exploration of the legacy of our current lifestyle and its effects on our world.

metal print with AI-assisted image 20 x 20" The Trust In Me series came about as a motivating manifestation. Like all artists, I go through the phases of extreme self-criticism. Moving to another city, to another country, you can’t help but start comparing yourself to others. You think you are not doing enough. You are not enough. In order to create freely you need to be connected with yourself. Spending more time alone and reflecting helps to hear that inner voice. Only YOU can know what to do next. I named each work in honor of women who in my opinion changed or magically touched the art world, As part of a series this work represents J. K. Rowling.

acrylic on panel 18 x 18" My My Blueberry Pie is about a favorite memory shared with my mom who is 94. Every summer we watch the hummingbirds on the porch at the lake. We get in our kayaks and paddle to a little island that is loaded with blueberries. We pick in silence, except for the sound of the birds, waves and boats. I look over and my mom is happy as a clam as she climbs deeper and deeper into the blueberry bush. We bring our stash home, clean them. We find the recipe, earmarked in our camp journal, written in my mother's handwriting. Realizing with a smile we have omitted the main ingredient. We work in tandem making the pie. We savor every bite back on the porch with the hummingbirds. Summer has arrived.

photography 18 x 24" While photographing one very cold morning in New York City, I noticed a woman approaching half a block away.. She reminded me of my sister.

My sister never said goodbye as I had arrived too late.that fateful day. This felt like my moment to do so.

In this painting we see a scared, young woman being escorted to a clinic. One of the escorts holds up a hanger with the bottom wire twisted to read “never again.” My fear is that abortions will once again become deadly. In reality, this only affects lower income girls and women as those more financially secure will just go to other states or countries.

gouache & Carand'Ache NeoColorsII on oleo paper 14.625 x 18.62 x 1.5" Having a vantage point away from people can give you the opportunity to really "study and see" the life happening around you. As an artist, this is very important and inspirational. The medium, gouache and Carand'Ache ll Aquarelle colors, gives an immediate opportunity to express and create the artwork. It lays down fast and dries quickly. I hope this piece, "Sunday morning at Track5, Coffee Shop", draws you in to really observe the painting. The "Characters" enjoying coffee under the moody warm lighting, seeming to create a movie like set. The fun of being so close, yet in your own space. Sometimes having nothing more in common than that morning brew & conversation. Enjoy!

acrylic, archival repurposed artist's rags, 23.5k gold leaf 10 x 10 x 3" At eight, when studying oil painting, I knew I would speak through my art. I have always been passionate about the beautiful palette of human diversity and nature, but also empathetic to the struggles of humanity and the vulnerability of all life forms. My decades long art career has been dedicated to making art about these passions. I observe and research for each painting. Something as small as a fruit fly, a beautiful human head, or a magnificent winter landscape seen from the train as I travel between my studios in Pittsburgh and NYC can inspire a large, multifaceted painting that combines human diversity, Mother Nature, and often the global struggles of women.

relief print with chine-colle 11 x 14 x 1" This is a view from my studio building, using real and imagined colors. I constructed the collagraph plate with multiple layers of cardboard and string. Initially conceived as a print in black and white, I am inspired to add color using chine-colle. In this piece I roll out the ink first, apply glue to each piece of colored paper, then place the individual papers colored side down on the inked plate. The print paper is then placed on top of the plate, where the ink will now transfer to the colored papers, and the colored papers will adhere to the print paper. I hand rub, and finally pull the print from the plate. I am having so much fun playing with a variety of color combinations!

The layered veils of color reflect a fragile luminous quality.

mica rock, fiber and molding paste, acrylics on wood cradle board 12 x 16 x 2" My inspiration came from challenging myself using unusual materials that I already had and a subject that I’ve never selected before. Working on a wooden cradle board, I glued on thin transparent layers of mica rock. A small palette knife with fiber and molding pastes were used to create the textured feathers. Acrylic pants completed the bas relief painting. I surprised myself with the results because I did not know if the combination would work.

bronze 13 x 12 x 4.5" My first job after college was as a graphic designer in Lexington, Ky. Having ridden my whole life, I always wanted to train a young horse. A friend said, you have to see this colt, he’s headed to the kill pens. I paid the kill price, he’d never been handled, came right over to me, & followed me. 18 mo. old and he knew. He walked right on the trailer. For almost 20 years, Maximillion was my constant companion & soulmate through 3 states, new jobs, new relationships. Sane, willing and smart. Maximillion earned us many championships including National ones. He got sick one day, suddenly. He was almost twenty and retired, He didn’t make it through surgery. This sculpture is dedicated to him.

oil 30 x 30 x 2" My paintings speak of the accumulation of life experiences. The multi-faceted nature of that which is beautiful but sad, is evidenced by heavily textured surfaces with repeated scrapings, layers and metallic pigments. The surfaces draw the viewer to the mystery of what is hidden and to the artist's internal reflections. Radiant pigments counterbalance the rough textural terrain of the emotional landscape. They afford glimpses of lightness, mystery and joy.

acrylic 30 x 30 x 1.5" A native New Yorker who has recently moved full time to Montauk, NY, I find the extraordinary sunsets throughout the years changing seasons inspirational. Whether taking walks in the woods or on the beach, the light never disappoints. Camp Hero was a former Air Force Station in Montauk, now part of Camp Hero State Park. It was during a walk here at sunset that my mind's eye captured and remembered the forceful color explosion that turned into this painting.

photography 20.5 x 19 x 1.25" In many ways, "Mussels on Tray" reflects the “lightbulb moment” in the development of my art form. It signifies the point in time during which I realized that the assemblies I was making from collected seashells and marine-life specimens, could be conveyed in photographs - still life’s that took on an almost painterly quality, highlighting the rhythm and repeating patterns found in nature. They twist and turn, nestled in one another, reflecting the force of movement that brought them to the shore, not unlike the force of movement that brought me to the full-time pursuit of creative expression – losing my daughter 13 years ago, when she crossed the street for a school bus in Los Angeles.

mixed media encaustic collage on cradled board 24 x 24" As a society, we are filling the universe with all kinds of junk and my collections of the patterns inside security envelopes only take a tiny fraction out of the waste stream. The protective intention of these decorative patterns is to camouflage & shield financial information. From an endless supply I pick the patterns that appeal to me and cut the envelopes into hexagons. Painting, drawing, handmade paper, gilding and encaustic combine in layers —building pattern and color. I layer tirelessly and final works have a very different appearance and impact. Straw into gold—the hexagons, plus the flux & flow of hot encaustics, transforms the junk mail that endlessly fills my space.

Let's keep fighting with all we have, from protest marches to voting for change to electing a judicial body that speaks for us. We must use all the tools we have, including conte crayon on paper, to salute our heroines and ignite others to continue the good fight. The battle continues.

oil on canvas 18 x 24" This artwork was born right after Hurricane Sandy caused major devastation along its path. Seeing the destruction of her home and city, the artist found solace in her community's unity to rebuild. The artists went through personal hurricane around the same years, and her work is a tribute to a human spirit and strength. Using the Peacock as a symbol of resilience and beauty, she portrays a world where human can conquer even the most catastrophic events. Through her use of vibrant colors and intricate details, the artist captures the essence of this remarkable spirit, portraying a world in which even the darkest of moments can be transformed into a source of fortitude and inspiration.

oil 24 x 30 x 1.25" I fell in love with Italy many years ago, and have returned a few times. There is so much beauty in the landscape, their sculptures, the piazzas and museums. So a year ago I traveled to Florence (again), Lake Como and Cinque Terre. Taking photos always holds the memories of the trip for me. I chose a photo from Cinque Terre as inspiration for my painting. The lighting was perfect for an afternoon, the boats were moored after a day of work, and two people sitting and chatting completed the scene.

The figure (who nearly had her hand cut off in the process) looks back at the artist and viewer reproachfully.

acrylic, paper, and ink 19 x 25 x 1" On a trip to Costa Rica, I did some nature hikes with a local guide in the old-growth forests. He was terrific at spotting animals up in the trees. We would view them through a high-power spotting scope (similar to binoculars but with only one lens). I loved viewing the world through the microcosm of a small circle. It made me focus on a tiny aspect of the greater jungle around us, ignoring everything around me. As an artist, I also like to create that focused direction in my artwork. I lead the viewer to what I want them to see through color, shape, value, and line.

paper, sequins, acrylic 18 x 18 x 7/8" "Hanging Out" is an example of the collaboration between the artist and the work that often happens if the artist takes the time to listen. This piece began as a collage of a western landscape, but slowly a different image began to emerge. Initially the artist saw a torso similar to a headless Degas ballerina, then a sleeveless jump suit appeared that clearly was in need of a hanger.

Marianne is the symbol for France like our Statue of Liberty.

oil on canvas/seed beads 24 x 24" Night Cover is from a body of work that is considering barriers. I am using stone walls as a metaphor for exclusion and inclusion. I ask the viewer to consider where one is positioned in relation to the wall -is one included or is one excluded? The painting is oil on canvas with the seed beads hand laid around the image. The beads are in the background but they come forward creating a visual tension-a tension that is reflected in the notion of walls/barriers.

acrylic, mirror, grout, tile, fabric, faux gold leaf 18 x 24 x 1" This piece speaks to being seen in an art way yes, but more in a human way. The ways in which being seen can heal and make us feel whole. The way being seen causes our light to shine. The way connection is facilitated when you tell another you see them. I think of my work as being of light. The reflective nature of the mirror creates a movement in light that interacts with its environment and viewer, I am hopeful in the most happy of ways.

Gomuban plate print, Akua ink 20 x 16 x 1" "Painting is an illusion, a piece of magic, so what you see is not what you see. I don't know what a painting is; who knows what sets off even the desire to paint? It might be things, thoughts, a memory, sensations, which have nothing to do directly with painting itself. They can come from anything and anywhere."- Phillip Guston

fresco, salvaged wood on panel 30 x 24" I’m constantly “puzzling” pieces together, whether in the studio, in nature, or in an urban environment; repeatedly picking things up and rearranging them. I’m fascinated with the interplay of contrasting materials and, at times, the contrast within those very materials. In this work, there is a juxtaposition of warm and cool colors, as well as warm and cool materials. There is also a juxtaposition within the elements, with the warmer colors in the cool, smooth texture of the plaster, and the cooler color in the warm, rough texture of the wood. From these relationships, a dialogue is born. I think this dialogue is what enables a work to resonate as both simple and complex, simultaneously.

hand-colored woodcut on canvas with embroidery 19 x 26" A lifelong fascination with sewing and construction led to working in the home sewing industry for many years.

oil on canvas 28 x 22 x 1" This painting is part of a my "Endangered Yet Unbowed" series of painting pertaining to endangered and threatened species. Florida Panthers are dying at an alarming rate. Currently, there are only about 200 known to exist in the wild. I feel we all have a responsibility to protect and bring awareness to all endangered and threatened species so that generations to come can enjoy their beauty.

digital photography 22 x 18" This image was taken while walking down a street in NYC near University Square. I saw the image of advertisement for the bra and then noticed the reflection of the car and old building. At first I thought WOW - something old, something new, something borrowed (or rented like the car), but nothing blue. However, the reflection is what caught my eye., I have a series of work that captures reflections in water, windows and store fronts.

etching with chine collé 19 x 24 x 1" I am always excited to explore and conquer new printmaking techniques. In this case, the copper plate is inked, and Chine collé circles were cut out of gampi, kitakata papers, and suminagashi prints, which I made, and were glued on. Then a plum gampi backed it all. Creating and executing the process itself puts me into the zone, a meditative state, and stops time for me. My themes are the search for and expression of the spirit within, be it animals, landscapes, or spacescapes. I use color, contrast and composition to captivate and create an emotional response for the viewer.

acrylic/collage 14 x 11 x 1.5" Lately, my thoughts have been focusing on the cosmos. Perhaps it has something to do with turning 70? The woman is taking a leap of faith, leaving the security of the steps and heading for the unknown. The figure originally came from a black and white photo of the artist.

steel 29 x 29 x 1" This wall-hanging sculpture is part of my new « Labyrinth series ». I played with flat bars in steel, drawing lines like labyrinths which speak about our internal human journey. In the process of shaping them, I loved using my strength only (no heat, no hammer). The lines are amplified by the play of light casting shadows on the wall and Her Way is an interactive sculpture, the viewer has the liberty to move all the characters within the labyrinth. Let your eyes follow the lines, and feel what narrative resonates the most for you.

acrylic 17.5 x 21.5" As a young adult I read the book, Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. The story stayed with me throughout my life, it was about "the deterioration of a woman's mental health while she is on a "rest cure" on a rented summer country estate with her family. Her obsession with the yellow wallpaper in her bedroom marks her descent into psychosis from her depression throughout the story." She would pick away at the wallpaper, creating images. Maybe it was the idea of what our minds are capable of, how much they can lead us in one direction or another. From elation to depression. My painting reflects both sides of this experience.

watercolor 24 x 24 x 1" Lavender Square is one of the pieces in my petal series, which all started with a floral arrangement. Photographing it up close, I discovered how the slightest movement of the camera created an entirely new composition. I was fascinated by the amazing color and shape of each petal. This discovery marked the beginning of a floral journey, starting in acrylic, then venturing into oil and watercolor. My background is in graphic design where I developed a bold approach to color and form. Painting shape by shape, I strive to make each one beautifully blended, and build the final painting like a puzzle, balancing color and texture as I go.

mixed-media, aluminum, sculpted photo, fabric, fiber, encaustic wax and paper 20 x 18 x 5" “Rooted in Humanity” is a series of relief sculptures that records moments of humanity and issues of the environment, reflecting tensions within our current diverse and often divisive society. Inspiration for these works began with long walks in the woods examining nature’s design and detail. By exploring innovative methods and materials, Horowitz’s path is always evolving as are her techniques. Capturing body language, movement and how they relate to emotion and character are essential. Forms emerge from the earth, deeply rooted past struggles and growth. These works depict the human form both isolated and vulnerable and examine the frailty of the human condition.

watercolor 12 x 9 x 1" I created this piece in a studio session with a live model, which is a favorite way to work, with a breathing person in front of you for only a short while. Watercolor is my primary medium, which enables a quickness and practiced looseness to capture an impression of the subject before me. I wanted to express the boldness of the somewhat relaxed pose. This women is determined not to be a victim and to make her own choices.

oil, charcoal, graphite on paper 26 x 21" For three years I have lived and worked in Dutchess County/Upstate New York. Here I cannot escape--the landscape. The natural environment of the Hudson Valley are triggers: rivers, ponds, mountains, trails, farmland, forests. I look for underlying geometry and order amid nature's chaos. Using drawing and mark making with charcoal and graphite and painting with layered oils, I generate an imagined reality from a perceived experience. Draw/erase. Paint/scrape. A ghost remains. I work toward a bilateral glimpse of interconnections between what we can see and what we imagine we can see--a superficial and a subterranean geography. This blend casts the familiar in a new light.

digital art on metal print 30 x 24 x 1" My artwork is a pictorial depiction of abstract words in spiritual concepts through the use of flower forms. By utilizing a central floral motif, I create digital images that place the flowers in a simulated environment, conveying the spiritual ideas and materializing them through digital alterations. For the artwork "Spiritual Birth," I chose a tropical flower that I captured in a photo on a trip to Florida. Its striking shape and vibrant colors inspired in me the idea of a spiritual awakening, which is an essential component of spiritual rebirth.

oil, metal leaf, and waxed thread on canvas 19.25 x 15.25 x 1.25" "Avocado Selfie" is not a self-portrait in the traditional sense, but it is an exploration of my current visual interests set against the backdrop of my own facial features. In the piece, I explore the tension between the representational and the abstract; the flat expanses against modeled forms. I am inspired by medieval European aesthetics and my background in theater, which influenced my color and material choices and the decision to stitch thread throughout the piece.

acrylic with drawing media on cradled board 20 x 20 x 1.5" Dark days of the quarantine resulted in a pall over everyday life, fostering solitude and stressing hope. My work explores the limitless possibilities of abstraction without reference to objective reality while it readily accesses a feeling or mood. In this work, layers of paint and lines mix together, shift and overlap, creating a floating movement as brighter spots are revealed beneath.

ceramic 12 x 12 x 9" The family unit is a medium between personal and social realms. Family is a medium where individual growth occurs in conjunction with interrelationships. It is a space of safety, acceptance, and extreme challenges to harmonize with one another. It is a golden middle between the eternal and the daily. A spirit of protection mediates a family. There are also daemons in the same media, to confuse, and misguide family members, to test their loyalty and their love. Finding a golden ratio among all family members while negotiating individual integrity is a happy medium. In the English language, the word medium has about 7 meanings, all of which can be seen as relevant to the concept of Family.

watercolor with ink and collage 12 x 16 x 1" My intent is to make visual my inner world of feelings and dreams. The creatures that inhabit this world appear during the process of creation and are not planned but embellished later. I am inspired by artists such as Klee and Kandinsky, Outsider art, and children's drawings. I am especially drawn to the element of whimsy and the directness I see in the work of these influences.

thread, rice paper, maps: McNally's System of Geography, 1868 16 x 20 x 3" In Wanderlust I, maps from geography books published in 1868 are cut and recombined. The carefully charted topographies, geographies, boundaries and coordinates are physically sliced, sewn, woven and layered - ultimately transformed and inviting new explorations. Layering the paper intuitively, responding to the existing cartographic renderings, allows for new territories to form. A unique perspective of mapping the world is depicted utilizing the antique materials. In the geography books from the 1800's the observations of the world provides a record of our long held fascination and curiosity for lands beyond. That drive to search for understanding continues to capture our imaginations.

screen-printed 20 x 20" After five years of persistent statewide drought, rampant wildfires seemed to consume much of the formerly spectacular California landscape. Shortly thereafter the rains came, and formerly barren areas could not absorb the water. Such a paradox… too little water, too much water, in just three months’ time. Climate change is real.
