Winter had definitely come to the river. The boats were put away and winter skies can be so interesting--such expanse and drama, as well as the water’s interaction, while holding the skies up.

watercolor 12 x 9 x 1" I created this piece in a studio session with a live model, which is a favorite way to work, with a breathing person in front of you for only a short while. Watercolor is my primary medium, which enables a quickness and practiced looseness to capture an impression of the subject before me. I wanted to express the boldness of the somewhat relaxed pose. This women is determined not to be a victim and to make her own choices.

hand cut collage on paper, handcolored 17 x 14 x .1" Women’s Rights issues have been top of mind for many of us. Along with an actual plague, the overturning of Roe V Wade and continuous misogyny has afflicted our nation and preoccupied my art practice. I decided to express my frustration and rage concerning our country's division and lack of empathy through collage. Using vintage imagery with contemporary themes in red, white, blue and black, and hand coloring with ink, colored pencil and acrylic paint, a political collage series was born. I hope to draw attention to the unfortunate retrogression of female rights in America. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

photograph 10 x 8" Although I do not often photograph people, in this case I found the faces amazingly telling. I asked the Greek woman if I could photograph her- she said it was ok. As if by miracle, the baby came out a second before I took the shot- I never even saw him until later.

digital archival photograph 8 x 9" I have spent much of my adult life photographing. I shoot anything that interests me, but over the years I have developed several specific portfolios that deal with my observations of city and country life: Street Seen, Rain, Graffiti, Torn Elegance and Reflections (puddles, buildings, ponds, stores) to name just a few. I have tried to teach myself to be a constant observer, searching always for new ways to interpret the customary. I see beauty in puddles, and have spent a lot of time gazing at, or photographing through wet surfaces. I ask the viewer join me and contemplate how things are magnificently transformed when one is looking “through” water-whether via puddle or pond reflections, or by simply gazing at a wet window during a rainstorm. Observed this way, all is transitory and ephemeral—perhaps a surreal, alternate reality, if you allow yourself to be drawn in by it. In my “Street Seen” series, I explore the lines and shapes that have been created over time, due to the effects of weather, traffic and corrosion. These crossing lines, or walkways that have eroded, are open to literal, figurative or conceptual interpretations. For me, they are found abstract compositions. I isolate small portions, hoping that to present these ubiquitous markings from another perspective. In short, I search for the aesthetic possibilities in mundane things that are often overlooked by people rushing by. I consider that which passers by have seen/not seen a million times. I hope to transcend the “ordinary” of the commonplace, and afford the willing viewer an opportunity to contemplate the world in a fresh way.

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.

It could manifest as a harmonious composition, a symphony of hues, or a transient observation reverberating with a smoldering emotion's echoes. The impulse to metamorphose this ephemeral vision into a tangible form eclipses my cognitive and emotional terrain, propelling me into creative fervor. In that moment, the world around me dissolves, and I become an alchemist, transmuting the intangible into a visceral, evocative expression that captures the essence of that singular, transcendent experience.oil on canvas

Rounded forms have, of late, stimulated participation in the circular movements of life – the coming round to something or spinning out of control. I bounce, roll, wobble, and delight in using color to enhance this movement and give the shapes a dynamic, often tactile, visual effect.

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.

Photography 15 x 15"I want to capture the fast-paced dynamics of New York City Street life. What is exciting and energizes me is how spontaneous the process is, and unpredictable people are. Some are completely unaware of being photographed, some may see me and try to pose or wave, others may be hostile to what they consider an intrusion. I will sometimes stop and ask someone if I can photograph them. Generally, I like to photograph on sunny days, which increases contrast in light and shadows. Places with interesting forms, light, and street geometry provide a good background and foreground to the people I choose to photograph.

I create feeling and expression with the use of sensitive line, with bold solid passages. I work with mixed media on paper. Two figures silhouetted on the beach, the sun is going down. The end of a perfect day in an imperfect world. Maybe chasing a dream as the sun goes behind the horizon.

ink on wood, graphite on rice paper with gold, copper and silver foil 12 x 12 x 1.5" I find in inspirational to work with new and different materials as a figurative artist. I had many books of foil that my father had given me, and I thought it would be wonderful to incorporate them into a piece of art, while think of my father while doing so. Foil is difficult medium to use, and I wanted to feel that I was using it in a new way. I inked wood with Chinese ink to give depth and worked from there. I then worked graphite on Chinese paper to get the effect I wanted. I have 2 more work to make a series of 3.

paste & ink on Arches paper 42 x 108" Quoddy I was created in the summer of 2022. I drove to downeast Lubec, Maine and over several days, I made ten "walk and draw" studies as I explored the trail there. There is a strong Japanese inspiration here in the simplified shapes. At the same time, in almost a cubist manner, I combine different views into one sweeping, overall view. The sunset in the back shows this shift of time and color. I also add Japanese kanji into the piece, to flatten the space and add eternal meanings. The ink is added after blending 20 layers of pastel.
