Bound Bonded Bronze Size of Piece: 40 x 24 x 16 The original piece was a large piece of black walnut wood. I created a small model and carved a male figure. He is starting to walk. Though his hands are bound in back with rope, and he is a slave, he holds himself upright with hope and self pride. This is a copy of the original and is made of bonded bronze.

onyx 10 x 16 x 15" The Invasive is a sculpture, in onyx, based on a two inch black seed of an invasive plant in the Hudson River. The sculptural forms of the seed are amazing and look a little like a devil"s head. Hence the nickname.

Ceramic - stoneware 17 x 12 x 12"I loved Kipling's "The Jungle Book". It was an interesting challenge to include elements of the story in a round format as if you were on a trail watching the story unfold.

pastel/stonehenge paper 22 x 28" The sky is ever changing and because I spend a multitude of time at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean I am constantly inspired by the variations even from moment to moment. While, Red Sky, may seem an exaggeration, in reality it was a particularly magnificent and pervasive sunset that saturated not only the sky but everything under it, including the ocean with a deep red glow. A truly mystical moment.

Painting Nyil 8 x 8 x 1/8 I am a self-taught artist, focused primarily on portraits and figures in oil and acrylic. This painting is part of a series of portraits of friends and family, as well as people I encounter in everyday life. Nyil is a young man I met in Pittsburgh, who graciously permitted me to take his photograph so that I could paint his portrait.

acrylic painting 24 x 24 x 2" The Haro Strait is one of the main channels connecting the Strait of Georgia to the Strait of Juan de Fuca, separating Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands in British Columbia, Canada from the San Juan Islands of Washington state in the United States. The forested mountains running down to the shore and the color of the water create a very different landscape than the south Florida coastline. With whales, seals and dolphins watching the marine life is pure joy.

mixed media 24 x 30 x 2.25" I am fascinated by the interaction between the surface of water and what lies beneath. As more of our planet experiences flooding the interaction becomes more profound. The sea stories and secrets held just under the mirror like surface tension are mysteries and chrinicles of not only history but possibly the future.

acrylic 23.5 x 31"How to depict the illusive concept of sin? Choosing an apple strongly symbolized this religious meaning, but how to render spirituality, devoid of gravity, was the challenge. The painting method implemented was to paint a setting of various deep blues pushing space forward and back. The wispy leaf-like lines created movement and visually flowed across the canvas implying spirit. The apple, in its purest form and color, is braced by 2 branches and created a stillness... Now the apple is ready to be picked.

acrylic 24 x 32" Traveling through Iceland and Alaska has provided many vistas of cold and frozen, snowy and rocky, desolate and comforting spaces. The deep quiet interrupted by a calving glacier, a roaring waterfall or the whoosh of an eagle's wings call me to capture yet another image. Painting these memories challenges my expression of the extremes of the winter seasons and climates....the sharpness of frozen ice.... and the softness of fallen snow....the deep blacks of volcanic rock and the pale blues of sky and waters. The shapes in these natural environments lend themselves easily to abstract expressions. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

Acrylic 12 x 12" Down on the Farm is one of a series of small paintings (12x12”) inspired during a late summer morning stroll through Homecoming Farm on Long Island. The people who developed & run the farm are devoted to organic methods honoring the immutable connection between Mother Earth and Holy Spirit. With a prophetic vision, they take responsibility for the health of our land, the bounty she produces, and the nourishment of the poor in our midst. I hope my paintings honor their commitment & their service to our community.

acrylic 16 x 20 x 2" I am often inspired to paint by the skies lit above and around me. Seasonal changes, daily shifting cloud shows, spectacular displays of color with dawn and the setting sun remind me to pause and take note....this moment....this very one will never happen again.

mixed media 10 x 10" This image represents a series of experiments combining photo transfers and printmaking as modes of art expression. Thematically, it shares the sense of exhilaration and magic experienced by children. It is my hope that it inspires a viewer to think, " I remember those innocent days." It has been created in the anticipation of larger canvases using similar processes. My art practice involves experimenting with and exploring different media and materials. For me, life is too short to limit my work to a specific style. In the same way I create this sense of childhood fantasy and freedom, I try to replicate that feeling in my paintings.

Clay, ink 10 x 6 x 4.5"For several years now, news media reports have been showing the destruction that is happening to our planet. Daily, there are more catastrophic meteorological events, as well as alarming statistics regarding glacial melting rates, wildfires, years-long droughts, disappearing habitats, and much more. Our safe food and water supply is imperiled on many fronts through pollution, poor infrastructure, war, politics, over consumption. The list is endless. So many humans have contributed to the crisis either actively or through ignorance, not knowing or caring about how their daily habits contribute to the current and immanent crisis. In choosing elements of nature as a theme, my sculptures reflect a concern regarding the effects of climate change. Trees expresses a possible future of desiccation, decay, and destruction. The future is colorless, hard, harsh, and lifeless. Hopefully, viewers of my work will have a visual reference that will influence individual and collective action against climate change.

There are no hands like a grandmother's, that have soothed the sick, planted and tended the seeds, cooked and served the food, sewed clothes, and might have delivered a spanking or two!

Acrylic on Art Board Untitled II-May 25, 2022 Size: 12 x 16 Framed Size: 16 x 20 Taking into consideration the tragedy of the Uvalde shooting, and experiencing the grief and angst that this gun violence and senseless killing of children and others continues, I poured everything-all the emotions I had into several pieces. My work endeavors to take all the conflict, tragedy and transmute it into visual harmony, in essence; take heat and make light.

acrylic, latex, graphite on art board 16 x 20 x .5" I moved from California just three years ago, largely due to wildfires, and found myself in a quiet rural New England town. Objects and photographs from years ago when I lived on the East Coast, that had been stored away for many years, when rediscovered, triggered an avalanche of memories and emotions. This piece is one of many that I refer to as Envisioning Emotional Connections Between Objects, Time, Memory and Experience.

acrylic & latex on canvas 30 x 40 x 2" After living in Los Angeles for years, I moved to Northern California. The pristine beauty inspired me to paint the landscape - motivated in part by the fear that I would wake up one day and it would all be gone! The Wildfires of 2017 were traumatic, we (my husband and I) experienced three on our land that year. Lower Ridge and Cow Mountain Under Smoke were both painted during the 2020 fire season, I felt as if I had to bear witness to this vanishing landscape. Later that year, largely due to the sudden death of my youngest sibling and ensuing California wildfires, we chose to sell our 195 acre place and move back to the East Coast to be near family. In my quiet rural town we are creating a new life and farm. I am still witnessing and interpreting the landscape. October Garden is about the excitement of connecting to and observing my new environment.

acrylic, latex, and graphite on canvas 24 x 24 x 1" Printemps is one of the first pieces I painted in my Abstracted Memories series.. It was painted in the spring of 2022 after being reunited with possessions of mine stored for decades. I had recently moved back to the East Coast from Northern California. The ensuing flood of emotions, memories and the sensations of touching objects and seeing again photographs of family members who had died even before the items were stored away, was overwhelming. Printemps is in honor of my grandmother Mamie, an artist and performer who raised me when I was a child and died when I was 14 years old. She sewed her dresses with beautiful fabrics, and loved flowers and bright colors. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

Printmaking 15 x 15" Bell’s Woodlands is a print from my recent series “ Trail Musings”. Being surrounded by nature has always been a source of interpretation for me, I am concerned about the impact and consequences of climate change. From remembered landscapes, I draw on my landscape photographs recording light, shadow and memory. Merging the images from several perspectives gives a closer interpretation of my experiences. The resulting images suggest narratives of unfolding life cycles: birth, growth, death and renewal.

terracotta 7 x 18 x 9" I’ve been working in water based clay which gets fired in a kiln, rather than plastilina on a metal armature which requires a mold, casting and patination to produce a finished piece. I love the color of the natural clay, and although it requires hollowing to avoid air bubbles which can explode in the kiln and destroy everything. The work produced is able to be offered at considerably lower price points. This piece was inspired by the model’s musculature, bulked up by recent physical training, and a joke about his male anatomy. He got “another sword” which then required a protective shield! The piece is named for the play by George Bernard Shaw, and the opening words of Virgil’s Aeneid.

Watercolor Pencil The Cairn Size: 30 x 22 Framed Size: 32 x 24 “The Cairn”… The word cairn originated in Gaelic, meaning “mound of stones.” The Cairn's primary purpose for the Celts, Native Americans, and other bygone cultures was to mark an area as sacred ground. This drawing, "The Cairn", is part of a series exploring the impact of conflict on women in war zones today. The contour of these bodies suggests the shape of a Cairn.. Although emotionally crushed by what they and their loved ones have experienced, the embrace of these women also suggests stability, strength and resilience. While they console one another, they create a sacred space. As they work to heal, they forge path forward through the complicated landscape of their broken world.

Mixed media, drawing on paper 24 x 18 x 1 in. Lena is my oldest grandchild and only granddaughter. Although she lives on the West coast, we have always shared a special bond. This summer, while she, her father and brother were visiting us in Virginia, she got her first period. Later, as we sat together, I began to sketch. At one point, she created a peep hole to look through as we talked. That gesture portrayed for me the ambivalence of the moment. It felt as though she was looking out at the future, as she contemplated the consequences of her body changing to her adult self. Her pose captured he tension between childhood and adulthood, highlighting the uncertainty and conflicting emotions that come with this transition Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

mixed media painting 30 x 40 x 2" The Sheep in Snow is a 30 x40” mixed media painting on Rives BFK paper. I adhered the original drawing onto a cradled wood panel. I then continued to paint into it and complete it with varnish. The gradual merging of the sheep and the snow in the background is reminiscent of many a snowstorm on the road to Syracuse where the snow clouded the vision ahead.

cut & shredded magazine paper 11 x 14" This collage is part of a series about the condition of asylum seekers and the parallel with the religous pilgrims of the past. Both traveled great distances on foot. Both believed in the existence of sanctuary based on faith, the faith that their hope of salvation existed in a physical location. Both are confronted with perils of travel and some never arrive at their hoped for destinations. The parallels reveal that suffering is a part of the human condition historically and in modernity. We like to believe in the advent of modernity that such suffering should be a thing of the past. It's up to all of us to make that change to minimalize the suffering of our fellow beings.

silverpoint on paper 4 x 7 x .5" Winter’s cold clarity of light echoes silverpoint’s play of light from metal particles, as in a scene of the skyline silhouettes of sentinel trees I drew in chilly Brittany, as I huddled in my car. In the Blue Mountains, a dead pine tree epitomized the wintertime quiet of death, hibernation or new life forming. Frozen realities also use winter symbolically. The genesis of Frozen in Time (Japan) was a photograph my grandfather took in 1924 Japan, a country shocked and reeling after the Great Kanto Earthquake: a photographic record of time frozen, a landscape long forgotten and changed, yet to me utterly poignant and eloquent.
