It offers solace and a recognition of the inherent beauty of our natural world even as It highlights the need to address this existential challenge. My intention is for Fire and Ice to be part of the great web of healing. I invite you to engage with the painting, lose yourself in its details, meditate on its meanings, and to carry those messages into your daily lives.

What sets Giverny Reflections apart is the overall patterning of colored marks, created through vigorous brush strokes.Someone told me that the intermingling blues, reds, greens, and yellows reminded her of Giverny. The sense of movement and depth, around the portion that suggests reflection and possibly water surrounded by foliage-like forms on either side, reminded her of standing in the garden there. So despite the fact that the inspiration came from my local walks I adopted the reference to that beautiful garden in France.

I Dreamt I Was a Bird but I Could Not Fly_#3 Acrylic on Gallery Wrapped Canvas Size of Piece: 36 x 12 There are times I struggle with depression. It's often a result of chronic physical pain from arthritis and from migraines...as well as from the maddening sounds of my tinnitus. Therefore, I turn to my Art as my primary emotional therapy. In my third painting, from my series "I Dreamt I Was A Bird But I Could Not Fly", I created a visual metaphor of my physical pain. Once I felt boundless, soaring like a fearless hawk; only to eventually have my wings clipped... entwining & binding me to the ground. In "Escape into My Garden" I use the tactile elements of molded paper, words & flowers from my own garden, to represent the therapeutic physicality in processing my feelings in my personal Art Therapy. Meanwhile, the visual of a person climbing inside this magnificent flower best expresses the Emotional Escapism & happiness that's often derived from 'Garden Therapy'. "Escape into my World" incorporates a myriad of elements which have brought joy to my life: My art as my visual Storytelling of our world & our human condition. As a woman who loves looking at the stars, wondering how we fit within our vast universe, while spending time in, on or around water, appreciating how precious our Earth’s water really is. And I am also a musician who has found that playing flute has gifted me friendships (over many decades) with like-minded creative musical souls...most of whom also share a love for creating art.

Those who were taken hostage, kidnapped or sold into slavery…. abused and the innocence of their youth is destroyed at the hands of their captors. They feel isolated and forgotten and... even if they want to cry out loud...they are too terrified to make a sound. I hear your cries in my mind... and I want the rest of the world to see it.mixed media 28 x 29 x 1.5"

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!

The piece evolved into a diptych due to a printing error which created a reverse image.. The diptych further strengthens the piece.

Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.Recently, I've been working on collographs. A collagraph is a print that is made from a collage of various materials that are glued together on cardboard, metal, or a hardboard plate. Texture can also be created by gouging or cutting into the board. It is then inked as either an intaglio or relief then run through the printing press with dampened paper on top. I enjoy this technique as it gives me the freedom to experiment with different materials and textures. I also work with decorative papers as an added element. It is also a departure from my more realistic linocuts, allowing me to explore abstract compositions.printmaking 23 x 14 x 2"

Pastel 12 x 14" This 8 x 10” pastel was an experiment that started with a watercolor of cloud formations while looking out of my 4th floor studio window. I liked the composition but the shapes weren’t fluid and the colors needed nuance. Pastels breathed life into the colors and imagination took over for the cloud like forms emoting a feeling of infinite distance and depth.

Acrylic 10 x 11 in. I see my work as an abstracted narrative. The figures seem to have something to say, or express; are often amid doing something and I feel the chatter in their heads. There’s a physicality in the work, the action of mind and body in the process. Showing what something feels like is what I hope to convey in paint. Puppeteer represents one from a series painted quickly and directly without prior drawing, leaving me open to being in response mode accessing motion and story without referencing much reality.

I work exclusively in traditional oils and place an intense focus on “light” and “motion.” All of these – wildlife, equine sports, and landscapes – have a unique personality that I strive to capture: The stillness of water, or its lively streaming. The boisterous bounding of hounds, or the dignified stride of horse and rider. Each painting unfolds its own story in color and light—and hopefully, conveys a timeless emotion, too. My work is collected nationally. I am an artist member of the Salmagundi Club in NYC, a signature member of the American Academy of Equine Art, and an associate member of both NAWA and AIS.Oil on linen board

Oil on canvas 21 x 25 in. LOOK OUTSIDE The model for this painting is my beautiful granddaughter Jamie, with gorgeous naturally curly saffron colored hair. She is only 8 years old here, but she is tall, making her look older. She is unaware of her natural youthful beauty. I love the lopsided bow on the back of her shirt. Seeing the work in progress, Jamie asked me to put an owl in the painting. I painted a barn owl in flight. The owl, like her wisdom, is coming towards her, but in her innocence, she looks the other way. Pensive (Jesse)This lovely young woman sits at the sweet threshold of adulthood.

oil on canvas 20 x 24" “Just Before the Stars Come Out” speaks of the end of the day; when the moon is up, just before the stars are readily visible. That sky has the most beautiful shade of royal blue, like lapis lazuli. It only lasts for a moment but is such magic. “I often find myself painting in two’s – such as the two chairs or two lampposts. It suggests a story, and I’ve been told it’s romantic.” I work both from direct observation of nature and from imagination. My work is about color and feelings. The thrill for me in painting lies in the countless possibilities of the interjection of a single stroke of color, upon color. My art is my effort to capture a moment and preserve the uniqueness of it.

oil on canvas 26 x 22 x 2" Part of my Conversation Pieces series, this is a piece about the expressiveness of our hands as we converse with one another. I made up the green rings, because I liked the sound of it for the title. The Conversation, painting suggests a conversation as one sits across the table from someone, implying a relationship between viewer and figure. There is also a connection with the viewer in the familiar habit of shared coffee. When I have my coffee, experiencing warmth on my hands, how many others are doing the same thing? What is familiar are gestures of hands--as stories are told--there is an underlying drama in the human exchange.

I find ways to find "safe passage" through the canvas, much as we all manuever through life and find our way. Life is like a puzzle and we all have to find a way to make all the pieces fit. Intuitively I convey feelings in a particular painting depending on my situation at the time..exploring the way shapes intersect in life and the way we someimes hide the obvious behind a mask. However I want the viewer to reach their own conclusions about what the symbolism may represent and decide what I may have been thinking.acrylic on canvas 36 x 24 x 1.5"

acrylic paint, ink, graphite, and thread on paper 12 x 12" Art is the language through which I navigate the intricate tapestry of my heritage, stitching together threads of identity and points of view.

This intertwining reflects women’s self-expression and diasporic identity.
