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.
-
watercolor 21 x 28 x 1" I am inspired by the mystery, magic and beauty of Mother Nature. Watermedia allows me to explore and interpret this theme intuitively. Layered with patterns and symbols, metaphor and archetypes, I unite often disparate worlds into new relationships-compositions and artworks that reveal the interconnectedness of nature, life spirit and time.

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.

pastel, ink, acrylic on paper 14.5 x 13.5 x 1" I wonder what it means to make art at a time when it seems we humans are not up to maintaining the health of our beautiful planet and its creatures. What I know is that for me, making art is like being a Therapist, and is like living life. Everything has a way of falling apart and then gathering together, making form out of the unformulated, continually layering and digging beneath the layers. The complexities of abstraction, color, line, and texture are the tools I employ in my passionate reach for exploration of the not yet imagined.

acrylic & mica on canvas 30 x 24" My current work is about the collective unconscious, the evolution of language and the urge to write. Over time I have invented a symbolic language that borrows from ancient symbols but represents no language system but my own, hybrid, created one, that continues to evolve with each new piece I make. The work is meant to be read as language that has no signified meaning other than the viewers interpretation.

yarn, excavated doll shards, black porcelain paint 30 x 28" On this hand knitted tapestry representing childhood and innocence is the tragic theme of brokenness and loss. Gun violence is the leading cause of childhood death. For every hundred thousand children, five are lost to gun violence as recorded by the CDC. As a therapist, I’ve seen their pain, fear, and the silent screams for help. In my art I seek to make their voices heard. I created Our Lost Children from raw wool, excavated doll shards, paint and tears, hoping all who see it will act to keep our children safe and break the cycle of childhood deaths by gun violence.

welded steel scraps 30 x 12 x 12" This figure is the first in a series of ten that I started in 2021. I am concerned about families in flight - cloaked in dignity and hope under impossible conditions. Garments in tatters are implied by steel scraps, long legs bowed head indicate a will to continue. I believe art may give the viewer a chance to pause and consider stories in the world that are difficult, that it helps us see through the cracks of the world we live in, and instills empathy.

watercolor, ink on paper 30 x 24" The painting depicts love and passion, often portrayed through the intimate interaction of the men and women in the piece. Using lines combined with watercolor and ink adds a sense of movement, life, and vitality to the figures as if they are in a passionate embrace. The composition suggests that the images are not only passionate lovers but also close friends, their connection goes beyond physical, and it is a deep and meaningful bond. Abstract elements add depth and complexity to the composition. The lines create a sense of life and energy, while the red adds emotion and intensity. I use abstract elements to create a sense of emotion and to convey a deeper meaning beyond the symbolic image

recycled paper 19 x 9 x 9" I am inspired by organic shapes found in nature, and the structures I create are made with organic materials, paper & wood, they more or less dictate the shapes I decide to build around, which in turn become organic looking. I create coral pieces because I was always drawn to the ocean and loved snorkeling. Neither the use of paper, nor the love of nature and the ocean are unique in any way, I am but one artist in a million inspired by nature, I have a bit less competition with the material chosen; paper. What sets me apart in my work is my ability to manipulate it in the way I do.

oil 18 x 24 x .5" Entanglements is a plein air painting of cypress trees on the rocky cliffs overlooking the blustering sea at Pescadero Point in Pebble Beach, California. The trees are entwined with one another as if in a comforting embrace, shaped by the wind coming off the water. It is late afternoon and the sun is slowly setting, shining a soft, warm light, casting shadows on the land and reflections on the sea.

ceramics and acrylic paint 15.5 x 10 x 11.5" The sculpture "Untitled (Head), is a work in clay, painted in layers of acrylic and gesso. It depicts an African American man, in state of suffering from racial abuse. It was inspired by a friend of mine, a guitar player, who came to practice one evening and told the band of the prejudice he endures on a daily basis in his workplace...

clay 2 x 3 x 5" How can someone shoot a child? This is a young boy shielding a little girl in her classroom. I envision these two huddling next to a wall displaying preschool art, by an overturned desk, and away from a door. As much as he tries to protect her, he cannot. Wearing her favorite dress and he, his favorite hat and hoodie, their day began as any other. Unlike my other work, sculpting this was an emotional challenge that brought tears to my eyes until I had to stop. How do we make it stop?

acrylic on cradled wood panel 30 x 30 x 2.5" The descriptive and passionately written poem, "The Sea", by Ralph Waldo Emerson, was my inspiration for this painting. I strived to create a visual image that is as sweeping as his words! I chose to paint on natural wood and kept the sides of my painting natural, to coordinate with the organic subject matter. An integrate part of this piece is my calligraphy on all 4 sides of Emerson's words in brushstrokes of paint., harmonious with my impressionistic scene's colors, brushstrokes and mark making.

oil on paper 30 x 24" I love Central Park. I've come to know it rather intimately during the last three "Covid" years. I wanted to try and capture the feeling of a fleeting season in my painting. I used simplicity and abbreviated line and color to evoke the scene. The duck happily paddling along was the icing on the cake. I have painted similar scenes at this spot in spring and winter. No matter what else happens, it's a comfort to know it all will return again the following year.

acrylic 24 x 24 x 1.5" "I Wanna Scream" for those who cannot. For the women whose right to speak up for themselves is constantly suppressed. For the journalists who cannot speak about a government's corruptions and/or atrocities without threat of imprisonment or physical retaliation against those they love. For the physically and emotionally abused who cannot cry for help for fear of what might happen to them. For the doctors who are threatened by their own government if they administer the care that their female patients so desperately seek. Art has always been an echo of the artist's world and of his time. And our present world has too many voices being muted. Too much silence when we need to scream!

acrylic on canvas 19 x 25 x 1" The urban landscape of New York is my primary subject matter. I have always been fascinated by how socio-economic forces have transformed neighborhoods over the decades, but I try to capture a sense of permanence amidst the flux. The Limelight is a Chelsea landmark, and as such it is a symbol of permanence, but it also encapsulates the ever-changing demographics of the city: In the mid-nineteenth century, the building was an Episcopalian church; in the 1960's, it was deconsecrated and transformed into a rehab facility; then in the eighties, it was turned into a nightclub. More recently, the building has housed a mall and a gym.

digital painting 14 x 28 x 1" I have always loved creating landscapes, and whether I am painting with actual paint or with my computer, I quickly and happily become lost in the process. Also, always evident with either method is my intense love of color. Catskill Morning is born of my memories of family journeys through the beautiful Catskill mountains when I was a child.

bronze 6 x 8 x 6" In 2017 a man opened fire upon a crowd that were attending an outdoor concert in Las Vegas, Nevada. The people ran to escape but were caged in by the barriers that were installed to prevent non paying customers from entrance - they were basically sardines in a can, unable to escape the onslaught of gun fire. "Child Proof? was created with the Las Vegas shooting in mind; although not carried out by a child our country has since experienced far too many gun killings.... and now even by children.

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.

photography 22 x 18 x 1" This photo brought home to me the importance of timing. While sitting outdoors near Madison Square, I glanced up to spot the MetLife Building casting a perfect shadow of itself on a nearby office building. Minutes earlier, or later, the sun would have shifted and the shadow would have changed. An unexpected find captured at that perfect moment!

oil on canvas 22 x 28" When I first saw Hudson Valley's landscape, I was stunned. It was picturesque, friendly, and colorful! It had incredible richness of nature - wild flowers in fields, abundance of trees and bushes, green grass around houses... Nature in Hudson Valley is so powerful that it could easily overcome human-made structures. But at the same time, nature and people their live in harmony with each other., and human habitats in Hudson Valley look so different in compare to disturbing life in big American cities. All that make this area unique and magical. In my painting I tried to express this harmony and promising way of living.

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.

digital archival photograph sublimated to aluminum 16 x 24 x 1" Tibet first captured my imagination many years ago when I was in art school. I was finally able to make the journey to Tibet on a photographic odyssey as part of a life celebration for my 50th birthday. Even though there are very few elements in this picture, I see a complex emotional range. It is a fleeting moment that somehow has permanence and an endurance, even in a religion based on impermanence. The scene that is about to unfold might be almost exactly as it would have been six hundred years ago. But will it be the same six hundred years from now? The folded robes are silent. They contain both presence and absence. The answer is unknown.

oil on wood panel 30 x 24 x 1" Part of a series that focus on the way reflections of the landscape on water look like calligraphy- like another language.

acrylic, oil, glass 12 x 12 x 2" My work is experimental. I used the left overs in my studio such as dried acrylic skins, seed beads, and a remnant of a bespoke glass piece gone wrong. I threw done the initial paint and let it dry. I stayed in a state of being open as I layered the skins, seed beads and glass pieces on the board. I added more paint and then finished the pieces using fat oil sticks in white or black.

In the throes of current natural phenoma: fires along the West Coast and miles of forest destroyed, floods, landslides, late season snowstorms paralyzing the Midwest, tornadoes... but with the conviction that all the negative is surely cyclical, I pursue my art -- aware, and hopeful that although the work may document the times I can convey the spirit of hope that golden days await ahead ---

digital archive photograph 20 x 16 x 1" From my observation point, the staircase seemed to have a feminine, curvaceous presence. The interplay of the lines, shapes and twists was fascinating. It's not a subject that I usually photograph but the perspective was unique and appealing. The colors were muted in an almost dreamlike way, giving the whole scene a surreal feeling.

oil on canvas 30 x 29 x 1.5" Whale Watching is an oil painting on canvas and was inspired by a trip across the Pacific in a small ship. For thirteen days there was nothing but blue! It was marvelous and inspired a series of all blue paintings. The somewhat monochromatic palette is bright and bold ultramarine blue in all shades, light to dark, with some turquoise and white as well. Lots of movement and depth have been created by layers of paint and bold brushwork. Packs a punch for its size.

fused glass 14 x 14" Glass is a very technical medium and my journey has been to learn different glass kiln-forming techniques to intertwine them together. My intention with new glass artwork is to start using glass sheets, crushed glass, glass stringers, glass powders and enamels to create images that go beyond the definition of fused glass (kiln-forming glass). Combining my artistic ability of drawing/painting to the glass elements allows the glass to appear as if I am painting with glass and giving it a magical flow.

photography 14 x 11" In my art work, I capture the simple beauty in the natural environment, providing moments of serenity. I use water and light as beautiful threads that draw the eye in. The quality of light is of paramount importance, defining the textures and forms in nature, and patterns of light and shadow. After several overcast days on Amelia Island, the sun finally burst out for a beautiful sunset. I then rushed out to capture this particular image in the enchanting light about a half hour before sunset. I printed the image using the platinum/palladium printing process to capture a softer, painterly effect, evoking late 19th century idyllic landscapes and lending a poetic quality to the image.

oil on canvas 30 x 24 x 1.5" My current interest is in the expression of emotional reactions to my environment -- the context of my experience of events or ideas. My vision of the world is pared down to its essence and the abstractions that emerge in this series inform my own understanding of the way in which I encounter the world. My personal milieu and my engagement within it form an organizing framework for explorations of evocative anecdotes – suggestions of being in a particular place and in a particular state of mind.

oil on garments mounted to board 20 x 16 x 2" I create canvases of deconstructed garments that I enrich with paint application. My works regard the dressing table in metaphor reflecting qualities of the feminine, aspects of womanhood, and identity. This piece is from a series of vignettes about the depth of emotions a female may experience reflecting in the mirror; thoughts she may have about life. Addressing the vanity as a place where one creates one-self; a study of women’s practices acts as an investigation into self and personality. Often appearing as stage-sets, vanities become theatrical platforms to speak to the evolution of femininity and the way we tear ourselves to live within what is socially accepted as feminine.
