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.

Photography 16 x 20 x 2 in. 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! Each line, each wrinkle has been well earned, over decades of love and selfless care for her family.

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.
