Through a Glass Window Size: 14 x 18" I am drawn to the energy of the city, not just from the people but from the buildings as well. Manhattan is comprised of many windows, this is but another one looking through the myriad layers the city is comprised of. This encaustic incorporates multiple layers of wax, with toner transfers, to create depth. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.  

Hawaiian White Ginger The tropical florals are an ongoing series of watercolors inspired by a solo show I was invited to have at the Koa Gallery in Honolulu that ran concurrent to a High School Reunion in Honolulu where I was born and raised. The work explores my passion for watercolor, serial imagery and evocative color. The subject matter takes me back to my roots and feelings of desire, longing, and a painful nostalgia as I relive my life rich with exotic scents, colors and adventures with childhood and teen friends, most of whom are still living in this tropical paradise and remain my closest friends to this day.

Midsummer Joy Size: 20 x 16" In this painting, I strive to capture the essence of Midsummer—an ancient celebration of light, life, and love. Midsummer is a time of transformation, where the earth is at its most abundant and the spirit is free. I seek to embody the enduring power of femininity, with movements that echo generations of joy, resilience, and deep connection to nature. This work is an ode to the strength of women, the beauty of shared celebration, and the joy of existing in harmony with the world.

Aftermath of Denial: Climate change does exist Size: 12 x 9" Aftermath of Denial: Climate Change Does Exist This painting is dedicated to shedding light on the worldwide climate situation. In particular, the fires that have devastated forests and the habitat that forests provide. Unfortunately, alternate facts and complete denial of climate change is taking this planet and humanity down a path of destruction that sooner or later can not be reversed.

Have a Seat Size: 12 x 12" Have a Seat is part of my FLORA series, an exploration and celebration of plants growing in the state of Rhode Island. These paintings were created using acrylic paint marker and ink wash on wood panel. I started this one in a greenhouse at one of my favorite places: Ragged Island Brewing Co. I spent a few hours on site composing, blocking in shapes, choosing base colors, and getting the perspective correct. I then took it into my studio, where the story in the painting revealed itself and I made decisions about what’s in / what’s out. I returned to the greenhouse to complete the piece a few days later.

Parts of the Whole Printmaking: Monotype w/chine colle, acrylic paint, gold leaf Size: 10 x 8"

My current work investigates the nature of communication - natural, political, interpersonal and geographical - to see how they attune to each other and hold the whole intact or fail and misfire. I use various printmaking methods like a cook would mix edible ingredients. The inherent notion of trust in systems as safety nets, protection and comfort is currently a consideration for every American given current political policy makers. It is only with scrutiny and discernment that we can examine which systems we have become complacent about saving or redeeming. This piece evolved from 2024 through 2025. Collage bits, text and gold leaf obliquely mirror current overload of information from which we are to extract our truth.

Thoughts Extend Sculpture-wood, found rust Size of Piece: 20.5 x 7

I negotiate my world as a maker. I love trees. Picking up fallen branches and twigs delights me. Rooting through my collection of gathered materials, I'm always thrilled to combine disparate elements and create a new object. My current piece, Extended Thoughts, is wood-carved, burned, and pigmented with colored pencil. The base is composed of various pieces of Rust - a square washer, a vintage gutter guard woven with coated yellow wire, and an old tree stand.

Glass Bowl of Oranges, Pitcher with Top, Red Peppers Watercolor Painting Size: 8 x 13" For over twenty-five years, I was a Professor of Sociology and Women’s Studies at Northeastern University in Boston, where I live. After a productive life as an academic: teacher and scholar who wrote several books, I retired and changed direction completely. Spontaneously, I started to paint with watercolors, taking classes and workshops whenever and wherever I could. I was possessed with the desire to visually represent, in beautiful watercolor, fruits and vegetables in bowls and on plates, creating a new way of seeing beauty in everyday, taken-for-granted objects. I love color and transparent watercolor. Light and shadow --created by the sun outside but observed primarily indoors in the kitchen-- are magic. For me, lighted round fruits of vibrant colors, such as oranges and tomatoes, combined with blues, usually found in ceramics and fabric, represent a promise: of the pleasures of food, meals, community, and peacefulness. Watercolors are part of that promise. The term ‘still life’ is significant in more ways than one: the world needs still life. Using a transparent palette and techniques, I arrange and rearrange kitchen items, often food, in the sun attempting to capture beautiful colors with their shadows and reflections. My goal as an artist is to represent life in ways that create viewers’ pleasure in my artistic accomplishment and images.

Still Life I have a green glass pitcher that was my grandmother’s. When the pink roses in my yard are in bloom they find their way to the pitcher. It always makes me think of her. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

The Sky Above Oil paint, tissue paper, oil pastel Size of Piece: 16 x 20"

I am both a professional musician and artist. I experience life as having order as well as disorder through sound and sight. I create art along with music. The execution of the painting therefore becomes a personal performance, as were my song recitals when I was singing professionally, the one difference being: I am not interpreting someone else's poetry - I am creating my own in color and shape.

The World Askew Size: 18 x 18" This work speaks abstractly to the total chaos in the current world. The background field is a blended roll of intense color layered on a plexi plate which is printed first. The smaller circular and geometric shaped plates are created from cut up Yupo painted with hot wax and printed in relief then layered on top of the blended roll image.. The dynamic positioning of the cut plates reflects my stress at the state of our current society. I struggle to create beauty during these chaotic times. The title "A World Askew" encompasses my intention and inspiration for this work. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.  

Small Work With A Dot On The Left Levin’s ink drawings use dip pen on paper. Her undulating lines contain stops and starts, deliberate accidents, ink bleeding into the paper fibers, one line at a time in a repeated pattern. In the artist’s words, “Repetition is a mediating factor between things that came before and the present.” From a distance, we see a whole shape. Up close, however, the series of thinly drawn and repetitive lines ripple from one to another, creating connections to natural phenomena, such as, the rings on a tree, the whirls on a fingertip, water patterns, or the markings of an ancient cuneiform.

Gulf Tide Monotype on Printmaking Paper Size of Piece: 18 x 24

My art is a vibrant celebration of nature's dynamic energy, inspired by the breathtaking landscapes of Naples, Florida. During a morning walk, I was captivated by the shimmering sunlight kissing the horizon, the playful splashes of fish beneath the surface, and the gentle sway of seagrass on coral as it danced to the rhythm of each tidal wave. Through the expressive medium of Monotype and impressionistic mark-making, I endeavored to capture the gulf's movement and vitality—including its intense color palette and abundant life below reaching upward to the sunlight.

LadyBatDogsTree Tiles, Acrylic Size: 11 x 14" I paint things animals and people that make me happy. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.  

Women in the Sticks Size: 36 x 50 x 6.25 I work both 2 and 3 dimensionally and always with the female figure often layering the form with marks or in this case branches. These two figures represent my love of ancient forms, natural environments and are to allude to the spirits I encounter in the woods. Lastly, as a child I lived in a rural place, which my friends all called “the sticks” so I have come back full circle to my origins. The figures are carved cedar 5 x 5 x 36 inches and the branches reach and shroud and surround them.

On the Edge I wanted to create a portrait of an edgy older woman. To accomplish this, I collaged a variety of media on a brightly painted background, which I think resulted in visual drama. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Icy Dawn Oil on linen panel Size: 16 x 12" I was on my way to the gym at dawn for a swim workout when I noticed the sky and its reflection on the frozen lake. I stopped to take photos and took color notes of the magnificent scene before me. I was inspired to paint this, of course, but this experience also inspired my day. I was reminded how important it is to be present and appreciate every moment. That was a great day!
