graphite, watercolor, charcoal, & white ink 15 x 15 x 1.5" In the last three years, preoccupation with the covid virus made every decision more urgent and uncertain. Isolation and extreme personal loss made the Covid Series necessary. Some testimony of the physical and emotional barriers, as well as the confusion, and strange hope of these days seemed important to commit to paper. Each work in this series shows contemplative aspects of these personally difficult years for me, but sadly many other people may connect with these experiences also.

acrylic on canvas 20 x 20 x 1.5" Bloom is focused in the photosynthesis of planktons and the journey this species go through yearly from the Atlantic to the Arctic. I was very intrigued to find this natural phenomenon and see the similarities to my work style. I intentionally mimicked the density of the reproduction of plankton, which their presence changes the color of the water in which they live, leaving a colorful trail in the ocean. My approach is very intuitive; through the use of washed acrylics aligned around earthy colors, I create space-contained systems driven by shapes, layers, patterns and textures to represent the alge bloom.

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.

machine applique, hand embroidery 34 x 32.5" Magical Unicorn, is a fiber portrait, of a profoundly autistic girl. ASD is a disorder mostly comprised of males. Only 1 in 178 girls are diagnosed with Autism. I discussed with the mother, of the child pictured in this quilt, what she loves, her favorite colors, and composed artwork to represent her. People with profound ASD are infants in aging bodies that exhibit childlike behaviors and activities. While their innocence remains, it is a beautiful and heartbreaking journey to witness.

acrylic paint, gold & copper leaves 24 x 24 x 1.5" Heavy Metal to me is a telling of who I used to be as an artist, and who I have become. Beginning over a decade ago with art deco and steampunk designs. Evolving now into my own personal style of maximalist abstract expressionist works. I used to be overly concerned about perfection, and fine lines, where now I can embrace an unfinished, rustic background. There is perfection in imperfection.

oil painting on wood panel 11 x 14 x .75" This work is part of my Military Spouse Project. One of two bodies of work currently in production, its focus is documenting and honoring our military spouses. The project was initially conceived to thank spouses who participated in my other project; Disrupted Military Portraits. However, these traditional portraits quickly took on a life of their own and I can see this work continuing into the future. As a military spouse myself, I see this as a way to give back to our unique community through artistic representation.

archival paper, photographs, & adhesive 8 x 9.75 x 1.5" Nature-Tecture #3 joins together architectural forms with plant life – thus the play on words in the title. As the third in this Nature-Tecture series, which searches for harmony between that which is manmade and the natural world, this piece pushes further on than its predecessors (#1 and #2), Here, I felt compelled to place the plants bursting out from behind these manmade forms. For me, they send a message: that they are present, vital, growing. This begs the question: What are we doing to protect plants, animals, oceans – and ourselves? And, what is preventing us from taking the action necessary to secure the health of our planet? Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

oil on panel 18 x 18 x 1.5" Through my paintings, I’ve become attentive to the splendid drama of my everyday world. How the wind can create a ripple in a pond, a flock of birds descending on a field, or how sunlight can illuminate the side of a building are small miracles that happen all around us. In my latest series of oil paintings called Old Souls, I have paid homage to the trees I’m familiar with as I progress through my daily life and work. I thought of these paintings more as portraits of friends than as landscape paintings. I believe nature is intertwined with our lives and has an awareness of our human activity. I find this feeling most prevalent with trees. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

oil on canvas 16 x 20 x .75" A figure in hot pinks stares with wide eyes in disbelief. What is she looking at? Is it the viewer? This expression of saturated emotion insights a real, tangible feeling within us, as the viewer. The space, however, is pixelated like a quilt stitched together. Is this scene 2-dimensional, patched together with pieces of fabric? Or has the figure somehow morphed this flat object into a 3-dimensional space to exist within? Is she stuck there? Is she asking you to help her get out?

silver solder & copper over wood 104 x 78 x 8" This sculpture is a data visualization of Anne's workload during the COVID lockdown. Anne is the mother of two young children, and during COVID she took on the roles of schoolteacher and household manager for her family of four who were now in the house every day, all the time. Stay-at-home parenting is a rigorous undertaking in the best of circumstances, and with no in-person school or childcare help, it became an all-consuming grind. In Anne’s sculpture, all work hours are unpaid. Larger silver spheres represent a full hour of unpaid labor and smaller spheres represent a half hour of unpaid labor. The very few empty spaces represent an hour when Anne was not working.

acrylics on mixed media paper mounted to wooden cradle 7 x 7 1.25" Abstract art for me is a chance to invoke a wild, primal and unconventional style of expression full of color. I start each work with no real direction or plan and as the paint hits the canvas the story comes to life. Whether that story comes from a life experience or something affecting the world today, each work will become a window into a narrative once completed. My wish for whomever glances upon my art is to temporarily leave the conventional and glance into a gateway of a vibrant story.

watercolor on paper 8 x 8" My artwork is inspired by the life I see in things like stains and cracks on sidewalks, La Marchande d'oeufs is based on a crack from a sidewalk in my home city of Providence. Like all of my watercolors, this one is characterized style by minimal lines and childlike shading. My process is not defined by preconceived ideas on my part, but rather one in which I listen to the stains and the cracks that call out to me.

photography printed on aluminum 16 x 20 x 1" My passion for photography stems from capturing a beautiful moment in time while holding the feeling that moment evokes. I intend these images to capture the raw, beauty of nature to portray both the calm, peaceful side and depict the power in our natural world. For me, photography is more than taking beautiful images - it’s about capturing the emotion and essence of a single moment and sharing that with the world. The photographs that I share are of locations that have brought me joy, peace, and comfort.

acrylic paint, mediums, and varnish 30 x 30 x 2" Remember when we could just play? The idea of endless hours of sunlit fun, without the concern of being caught in the dark, has gone into the dream world of Land of the Midnight Sun. What if we lived in Fairbanks, Alaska? Would it be different? Would we play with abandon after work, as the sun found us hiking, running, and exploring far into the passage of the day? I imagined creatures, large and small, once hidden by shadow, now slithering and sliding, rolling and romping. The sunshine phenomenon was used to bring fantasy and a cornucopia of treasures, as a reminder that out of shadows comes the light of fun and laughter.

silicone, rainwater, & acrylic paints onto an indigo background 60 x 48 x 2" While exhibiting my paintings in Italy in 2018, I traveled by car to Reggio, Calabria, the home of my grandparents. I visited many museums along the way, and discovered that mermaids were prevalent in Italian lore and art. They reminded me of the Celtic selkies, and the Native American myth of Sedna. I instilled the wonder, joy, and hope I absorbed from their stories into She Harbors the Sea.

soft pastel on sanded paper 25 x 18" I love capturing the essence of life with my art. I have a unique approach to colors. I paint with rich and pure pigments, often without mixing. My work depicts the subtle lights, reflections and hidden hues on the subjects. Every artwork I create is inspired from life through an imaginative approach. My preferred mediums is soft pastel. I was attracted to the colorful outfit of model in this painting. Her calmness and the bright colors created an interesting contrast, as if she was mesmorized in thoughts. My goal was to capture the essence of this moment.

oil on wood panel 9 x 12" I've loved the ocean since growing up on Long Island as a child. The crash of waves, the salt air and people jumping into the water on a hot day in their often brightly colored swimsuits is an endless source of fascination for me and has inspired a series of paintings of the beach.

acrylic with oil, beeswax, & gold leaf 20 x 20 x 2" I often surprise myself by making art that comes from remembering and expressing my own internal dialog. Experiencing times and places of intense activity, clutter, even chaos, I observe my thoughts seeking the quiet comfort and ease of greater spaciousness. For me this is the manner in which tension resolves as it unwinds and dissipates into the vastness of our inner landscapes, the places we visit when we close our eyes.

watercolor paper handcarved with scalpels 15 x 19 x .1" My bas relief paper sculptures allow me to explore the subtle nuances of light and shadow, as well as the delicate interplay between positive and negative space. Fauna features an enchanting array of florals, fauna, and wild flowers that have a touch of whimsy. Here I use watercolor paper, and scalpels to carve into the paper. I rarely plan in detail what I will sculpt and prefer to start and flow. Each piece is unique and takes multiple hours. I like to offset the rhythmic and repetitive patterns with a little chaos, opting for a dynamic and occasionally irregular composition, as if to convey the petals on paper breaking free from the substrate that binds them.

color pencils on Strathmore Bristol Smooth 400 Series 17 x 13" Mushroom foraging is a popular Czech tradition and it’s one that my family (I am of Czech descent) enjoys. Chanterelles, lobster mushrooms, black trumpets and, of course, morels are our favorites. The basket of morels in my piece was inspired by mushrooms we picked on family land. I started looking at the photos I took that day. My artwork is a straightforward sharing of what I see in the world around me, whether it is my family, the traditions we share, or nature so I decided the textures of the mushrooms and basket would make a fantastic colored pencil work. The details were daunting and required patience I don’t always have, but the result was worth the effort!

jpeg from large-format inkjet printer with plaster, pastel, charcoal, and pencil superimposed on the surface 12 x 16" Informed by relics of different historical cultures, my work suggests ideal forms as they exist in nature, the human figure and the man-made world. It imparts a fascination with archeology as it reveals traces of previous life, and offers clues to the distant past. My pieces imply a multi-planar reality, and a duality of time: past and present. This is presented in a structure in which overlapping and interlocking planes emphasize compressed space. Layers of fragmented, repeated images, transparencies of forms, and multifaceted colliding energies all contribute to a sense of time intersecting with space.

inkjet print of photographed & digitally altered cut-out collage using transparent paper over a light box 10 x 8" I work with women images, creative colorful women in abstract shapes and light; this work illustrates women’s inner strength and balance. As Above So Below. Moving energy is an important skill. Feeling in your gut and projecting that feeling out is powerful. Holding up your power to present to the world is engaging. Our ideas are ready to materialize in the world.

soft pastel on Canson Mi-Teintes Touch sanded paper 18.25 x 13.375" My work is inspired by objects and scenes from the natural world. I work mainly in soft pastels, and watercolor. When I'm observing something, I'm not simply noticing the object or the landscape before me, I see the dance of colors in color, the lyricism of line, and the play of shapes through value and space. We are surrounded by sublime beauty in the mundane as much as in the extraordinary, and it's this transitory beauty that I am compelled to capture. Aiming to make my work accessible and easy to understand, I prefer to create representational work.

oil on panel 12 x 16" I live near the Hudson River and have walked along it in every season and kind of light. One day I saw this pier from an angle that reminded me of Magritte – so how could I resist it? There were many other things I loved about this image - the contrast of textures in the metal pier, rough stone wall and tall grasses; the glow of the sand uncovered by the tide; and the distant skyline. I used glazes to create the glowing sand, and emphasized the horizontal constructions to contrast with the organic foliage form.
