Fused Glass using different glass compounds 12 x 10 in. w/ frame 12 x 10.5 in. This body of glass artwork depicts my personal journey of exploration of kiln-forming glass techniques over the years and bringing to life other facets of my art into glass with my live model sketches. Over the years I have been studying different glass techniques, and at the same time sketching live models. My goal was to have the live models as glass art pieces. Learning enamel drawing and experimenting with powders to form different tones has enabled me to do just that. The pieces are layered glass with backgrounds using various glass powders and stenciling. This combination reflects drawing skills with kiln-forming glass.

Platinum/palladium photograph 8 x 10 in. 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. I contact 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.

Photograph on metal 12 x 12 in. I am fascinated by hummingbirds. They are so beautiful and are an amazing site to behold. To watch them take long drinks while dispensing the energy it takes to hover over their nourishment.is a wonder in itself. I had set up my camera, tripod and plenty of nectar, and photographed trying to capture their little bodies without blurring their beauty. With the red feeder and contrast of the bird, I knew I wanted the print to be on glossy metal. Hopefully, the viewer can feel the energy of this tiny creature.

Oil on canvas 10 x 10 in. w/frame 10.5 x 10.5 in. I have long been fascinated with painting water in all it’s variations. I love the power and incredible colors present in the churning ocean as well as the quieter moods of a calm pond or the rushing of a stream over rocks. Recently, I got a dog who loves the water. I spend a lot of time with her and her dog friends at the beach or a pond. So it wasn’t much of a leap to want to try my hand at representing the joy of these ‘water dogs.” It’s a rich source of reference material watching these dogs being crazy, goofy and so very happy as they race play in the water or swim for balls and sticks. This painting is part of a series of dogs and water I am currently working on — the best of two things that I love!

Archival watercolor pigments on 300lb Arches paper 6 x 3 in. w/frame 10 x 8 in. I often have little thought of what I am painting until the first few marks appear on the paper. My subconscious plays a huge part in my work. I really had no idea where this image was going as I created it; I just had a sense of loneliness and isolation and finality, which is reflected in the title.

Paint, Print, Paper, Fiber on Arches Paper 9 x 12 in. I'm an award-winning abstract artist who has worked in many disciplines during the course of a 35+year career.

Photography 7 x 5 in. w/frame 12 x 10 in. As a photographer, spending time in nature’s wildlife habitats can result in either missed opportunities or getting a perfect image. The morning I visited Donnelly Wildlife Preserve, I hoped to photograph marsh birds along the water’s edge. As I drove along a dyke, I saw a unique shaped branch shooting out of the pond that would make a good landing spot for avian subjects. I set-up my tripod and camera, with 500mm lens, to aim just at the top of the branch. Then I chose my camera settings so I would be ready to snap a photo if a bird landed there. I was ecstatic when, about 30 minutes later, a Belted Kingfisher perched on the branch. I often hear Kingfishers when out near marshes, but is difficult to see them; and photographing one is even more so. Capturing this photo made my day.

Works on Paper 24 x 18 in. Since the pandemic, I have been incorporating masks and braille in monotypes to explore how we hide or reveal ourselves. This series, “Who Sees?”, explores the use of veils, masks, head coverings, face coverings in different cultures. How do we perceive women when they are veiled or masked? Are they disempowered or empowered? Do the masks/veils offer freedom or protection or bondage? The images that I create are multilayered, pushing us to delve deeper into this subject. “Who Sees” simultaneously draws you in and pushes you away.

Painting 14 x 11 in. This piece was inspired by a visit to the American College of Building Arts in Charleston, South Carolina.. Michaelangelo himself would have been right at home in the sculpture studio of this academy, I think what appealed to me about this piece, aside from its classical grace, was its status as a work in process, a timeless moment on the way to becoming a finished statue. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Works on Paper 36 x 36 in. This piece, Windblown, is part of a series called Transitions. When I started this series I was touched by the lament of “women of a certain age”, feeling that they were invisible, overlooked, and insignificant. This series is my attempt to visually capture this time in a woman’s life as an ending as well as a new beginning as the sunflower emits its seeds and begins again. The subject of this work is an aged, dried sunflower. I used Chinese ink to explore the transient nature of life and the strength of that transience. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Mixed Media Painting 20 x 20 x 1.5 in. This painting is part of the "Universal Us" series based on the notion that science and reason reveal that we are truly one with the universe. All physical things derive from the same elemental building blocks, making us ... all the same. This series depicts diverse beings (some from the imagination), traveling through time, space or our minds and joining together in harmony. In this painting, a Gong Fu figure formed by genetic coding, a tree like plant, and a landscape from another world, are separately and jointly ruled over by a symbolic law of gravity.

Digital Photograph 13 x 20 in. As I walked in the fog, this lonely and worn building emerged from the misty greenery. I took out my camera and telephoto lens and captured the solitude of this shed. I wondered about its history and the stories it could tell. The architecture, though simple, had a charm and elegance in its design. The builder had a sense of detail, proportion and functionality. The structure was modest but orderly, with a clear path leading to the door. Would you like to enter?

Works on Paper 20 x 16 x .50 in. My art is inspired by the 19th-century Fontainebleau painters and their up-close sous-bois perspective. I focus on the intricate details of natural textures, colors, and diverse life in the undergrowth of Florida's native trees. My contemporary up-close viewpoint is rooted in exploring light and shadow within monotype prints, plaster sculptures, and paintings. Layers of additive and reductive color are carved with mark-making tools to create textures that vibrate between contemporary, impressionism, and abstractionism, forming an interdependent relationship with the past and present. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Sculpture 16 x 18 in.

Mixed Media Painting 16 x 16 x 1 in. Figures and vessels have similarities and intuitively tend to appear abstractly and subtly in sketches and paintings. The basis of "Then There Were Five" is a mix of intuitive movement countered with the mindful placement of marks and shapes. My daily habit of drawing creates a starting point, which lends to primarily drawing with paint using a neutral and serene palette. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Painting 32 x 25 in. Usually, one idea follows another. I have several themes that I go between, but I find, each seems to dovetail into the other to eventually build a cohesive collection. This is not planned, and I speak retrospectively. Also, the palette seems to be consistent. Maybe this is true as a result of years of work. Nonetheless, there seems to be so much more to do and so many ideas not yet realized. I suppose it's never ending. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Morning Stretch 18 x 12 x in. I’m in love with the line. The language of line, delivered with a crashing landing on a page or the gentlest calligraphic curve, or a collection of marks, exudes a power and a sense of storytelling that is beautiful to me. It transcends the verbal communication. Drawing the human figure in line, connects me to my models and the stories that they tell through their poses. It is a collaboration- the model, the artist, the line. Line educates me, supports me, and excites me. It is the vehicle that tells my stories.

Painting Tangled Up in Blue 20 x 20 x 1.5 in. I have a deep connection to the natural world that I see through the eyes of an artist. My paintings capture a moment or memory of wonder, joy, and beauty, something special that caught my eye. Paintings are inspired by the diverse colors of light, atmosphere, and nature in the coastal landscape where I live. I look for what is unique to convey a sense of place. Although often evoked by a fleeting moment, I translate in paint to transcend time. Brushstrokes over glimpses of color intentionally reveal some of the painting process. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Painting Healthy Skeptic 18 x 18 x 1 in. When I start a new portrait, I work to establish a faithful depiction of my subject first, through careful sketching and underpainting, paying close attention to the underlying bone structure, musculature and proportion. Then, with my choices of color, texture, brushwork, and some intuition, I try to go beyond, to capture a sense of the subject’s inner self as well. A finished painting conveys a likeness, but hopefully also a presence; when you look at it, you might feel it is looking back at you. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Mixed Media Siren Song I 20 x 11 x 2 in. "Siren Song" is a mixed media painting that dives into the ocean's contrasting nature. The textural richness of the impasto technique reflects the power and movement of the ocean, while the abstraction evokes the mystery and allure that has captivated humanity for centuries. The painting hints at the ocean's violence and tranquility. The title, "Siren Song," reflects the ocean's seductive danger, luring viewers in with its beauty just as the mythical sirens did. The impasto technique itself, with its thick application of paint, draws the viewer in, inviting them to explore the textural depths of the artwork, much like the ocean beckons us to delve deeper. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Sculpture Grasping for Air 18 x 24 x 2 in. I am attracted to both the flow of fabric and the elements of construction that transform an unstructured surface into a sculptured form that fits a human body. Seams, edgings, buttons, zippers and all the other ways that cloth becomes clothing find their way into my current body of work. Like an abstract painting, my work emerges from a process of deconstructing and then reassembling the fractured elements from my collection of discarded clothing. I hand stitch the garment fragments into a low relief sculpture, then solidify the surface by applying multiple layers of canvas priming gesso. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Painting Tidal 40 x 40 in. The artwork *Tidal* draws its inspiration from the natural beauty of New England's seacoast, particularly the captivating interplay of land, water, and sky. As a colorist, I interpret this environment through bold, expressive use of color, conveying not just what I see, but the emotional resonance these landscapes evoke. The fluidity of the acrylic, oil pastel, and watercolor on unprimed canvas allows for spontaneous movement and layering, capturing the ebb and flow of tidal rhythms. This piece blends abstraction with the organic forms of the seacoast, reflecting my deep connection to the region and its ever-changing nature. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
-
Painting Yellow Door 20 x 16 in. Vibrant Colors and Rich textures are a signature of my works. My paintings are always a process. I work intuitively as the image evolves. Varied layers of glazing give lushness and depth, while the addition of mediums helps to create the textures that emerge in the final image. I work pushing and pulling shapes, surfaces, and colors, until I am excited with the uniqueness of each piece. Yellow Door was inspired by the many homes we passed on the waterway while my husband, cocker spaniel and I cruised the great American Loop through the Eastern United States and Canada. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Mixed Media Painting American Art Spirit 20 x 16 x 2 in. The American Art Spirit is an oil painting of a male dancer in jeans leaping gracefully across the Hudson River. Painted en plein air on the shores of Rhinebeck, NY, I captured the movement of the water as it flows both ways late in the day. My model and intern, Guy, embodies the human beauty that fascinates me—the muscles, nerves, bones—the whole human package. For me, contemplating nature and the body is a sacrament. Inspired by NAC founder Robert Henri, I aim to express the American spirit through this painting. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Fiber Arts NUBIGI ,000,097. 9 x 14 in. All of the tiltles of art work include the term "NUBIGi" and a number. Numbers just state the order of art work. NUBIGi means sewing in Korean. For me, sewing means passing through time. The needle pierces the fabric, and the thread connects the holes with the holes, drawing lines and planes from the points. Only expresses the sewing itself, shows that time is still in it. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Works on Paper Farewell to the Goddess 16 x 16 in. I love the meditative nature of creating patterns and collages using drawing, carving, stamping and mixing media. Most of the imagery is pieced together from my sun-drenched memories of my adolescent years spent in India. This piece is about the celebration of the Goddess Durga. In Kolkata, every year in October, for 7 days, the city comes alive with hundreds of installation art pieces dedicated to the goddess depicting her in various creative ways. After seven days, the structures come down and the Durga idols are thrown into the river, symbolizing her return home, The city then goes back to its normal hustle and bustle. Months later the eroding idols can be found tossed aside. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

SoldMixed Media Red Skirt 12 x 18 x 1 in. Movement, ecstasy, yearning-all are revealed in the dance! Fascinated, I find the dancer-art leading me to look at my creativity with new eyes. As a photographer, I start each piece with a camera, portraying an impressionist view of the dance. In this piece, I noticed details of her hand and her flaring skirt. I print and embed the image in encaustic wax, then listen to it tell its tale. As I spend time with it, I add encaustic wax to build layers, also using other media. This tactile approach connects me deeply to the work. This body of work has challenged me to grow as an artist and human. I feel myself asked to look into my very soul to rediscover the multiple facets of my own humanity. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Painting The Forest Glows at Night 42 x 42 in. I live on the shoreline in eastern Connecticut where there is a bounty of inspiration. I began years ago as a landscape painter. Over time I transitioned into abstraction. I still consider myself a landscape painter but focusing more the abstract components of nature. My work explores patterns using aerial views of landscapes, i.e. coastlines, marshes, forests and rivers. I use symmetrical, asymmetrical, and organic shapes that I see around me. I am influenced by indigenous peoples, Japanese wood block prints and the work of Gustav Klimt. I don't sketch my ideas first but paint directly onto the canvas and create as I go along, Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Painting Will You Catch Me? 16 x 16 x 2 in. This piece- Will You Catch Me? - was part of a body of work inspired by 'play'- in the way that many artists, such as myself, utilize playfulness to get into the process of art making. With this piece, my process started with mark making, collage. painting, removing, drawing into, printmaking, until ideas began to emerge - a fantasy under and over water perhaps (?) since I am surrounded by quarries and ocean. Eventually a theme around risk-taking (with or without a net) began to surface. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Painting She, Bright as Yellow 16 x 16 x 2 in. 'She, Bright as Yellow' moved me to paint. From corsets, panty hose, Skims and Spanx we are so often asked to constrict, to make smaller. Working from my series of underwater works titled ‘Coming Up For Air”, the painting included in this submission reflect on the notion of breath; fighting for and finding the space to breathe in. My work is a joyful reclamation. Through provocation, humor, and strength, I examine equality and personal truths through a contemporary figurative lens. I explore the complex ways we all navigate in the spaces that surround us, and how I hope my work emboldens women to take up space. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Mixed Media Trichaptum Fungi (Trichaptum abietinum) 40 x 30 in. My work reflects my close observation of nature. I attempt to capture its endless fluctuations: shifting light, variegated colors, constant movement, evolving forms, evidence of resident fauna. Working abstractly, yet botanically accurately, I surprise viewers with unusual views revealing the complex design inherent in often unnoticed life. By sharing the beauty of humble local ecosystems, I hope to induce viewers to look deeply. I am exquisitely aware that, though nature is our collective home, human activity has caused irreparable losses of habitat, resource, and species. My work, thus, aims to respond to ecologists’ call for native ecosystem rediscovery and restoration. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Painting Above the Skyline 60 x 48 x 1.5 in. My paintings are very textural. The smoothness, roughness and softness of the paint on the canvas reveal the feelings of calm, energy and resiliency. My paintings hold hundreds of lines, angles and shapes. Texture is created with the palette knife and is either quickly or slowly pushed across the surface. Paint applied in a slow billowy swirl or hard structural edges depict life’s ups and downs. My work shows a love of design and representational art. The past has come and gone and the future is something to dream away this moment to be revealed in my art. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
