  • monoprint with watercolor 18 x 24"   Loie Fuller was a pioneer modern dancer, or “free dance,” as it was called in early days. She was born Marie Louise Fuller in 1862 in my home state of Illinois and renamed herself “Loie” at age 16. She was filmed in 1902, perhaps the first film of a dancer. I imagined her perhaps in a mirror, or doing a duet with herself, in this monoprint. This print, on Hannemuhle paper, was created from a plexiglass plate with a dremel, inked as an intaglio print and subsequently hand watercolored. It is an homage to Ms. Fuller, her history, the joy of dance and the dancing days of my youth- Jill Cliffer-Baratta   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • oil on canvas 20 x 16 x 0.7" I've spent my whole life painting to express who I am. My art reflects life's ups and downs, capturing moments of struggle, enlightenment, and search for peace from a woman's viewpoint. Drawing inspiration from my own journey, tackling emotions like solitude and the quest for purpose, I craft subjects that resonate with universal themes. Through my paintings, I unfold my narrative to the world, employing the canvas as my chosen medium. To keep things fresh, I constantly play with a range of colors and shapes, allowing me to dive into my creative depths while staying true to my distinctive style.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • photograph of a transparent collage on a light box 11 x 14" I fold the paper in half, pick up my scissors, and begin to cut. I move my scissors to shape women of various shapes and sizes. I arrange and rearrange and look for backgrounds, and then click-click, I have a photo. Next I work on variations, exploring where the graphic wants to go, revealing hidden layers. Colorful women in abstract shapes and light illustrate women’s inner strength and balance. Every time I pick up my scissors and begin anew I am excited to see who emerges. I have a parade of paper cutouts of women clamoring to be heard.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • mixed media 15 x 11 x .5" The two images represented in “Breaking Bread” include women working over primitive ovens in the outdoor market in Istanbul, making bread, to be sold and eaten as it is pulled from the heat. Fragments of ancient fired pottery and Turkish carpets, all cut to resemble mosaic pieces are cultural objects layered and embedded in plaster in an archeological framework that reflects timeless events and meanings of Anatolian culture from Neolithic times. Making and Breaking bread are traditions celebrating culture, family and friends throughout history, and a symbol of the simple activities that unify and define us through our commonalities.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • wax pastel on paper 24 x 18 x 1.5" An exploration of seeing things from different perspectives. We're familiar with the expression "realize my dreams", but what if instead we danced with our dreams? And moonrise almost becomes a landscape within a landscape. Finally, self portrait is usually of one's face, but what if it was more commonly the back of the head?

  • mixed media acrylic on collage of recycled materials on canvas 24 x 24 x 2" I believe that in a world overwhelmed by waste, it’s important to give discarded objects a new purpose and highlight their hidden potential. Each portrait I create tells a unique story and represents the indescribable complexity of the female experience. Because they are painted in acrylic on a textured collage the structure of the background shines through the painted image, marking the female bodies with roughness and imperfection in the manner of passing life that is imprinted in the flesh.These portraits are a testament to the strength, resilience and beauty that women possess, breaking through societal norms and stereotypes.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • acrylic on stretched canvas 26 x 24 x 1.5" I paint abstract scenes of women, drawing on evocative color palettes to explore themes of identity, beauty, and power. Each painting is a self-portrait of my own emotional experience, emerging from roles as a mother, daughter, friend, and psychotherapist. In this piece, the woman appears to be experiencing a profoundly personal moment as she melds into an organic, ethereal landscape, enveloped in vibrant hues of pink, yellow, and orange.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • oil on canvas 12 x 16" This painting is about a woman who works at a small Siberian railway station, trying to look good and respectable even with a meager salary.

  • 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.  
  • acrylic on cradled wood panel 18 x 24" I recently drew an abandoned textile factory where generations of women, wives and daughters of men who worked the mines and the mills, worked long hours at the looms and held their families together. Their strength and fortitude supported the growing industrial power of the United States. The memories of these long-forgotten women reverberate through the dilapidated equipment, and the traces of their lives intertwines with the weeds that now reclaim the space. The drawing of the factory marks the history; the painting indexes the emotions of the women who worked there and the humming of the now-silent looms.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • digital photography, Inkjet archival print 16 x 20 x 1" My photo 'Reminiscing' is based on an encounter with a woman, dressed mostly in black, sitting in front of the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC.. She agreed to pose for me and I took a few photos. She said she had been a student there, many years ago and the school enabled her to become a successful graphic designer. The other two photos were taken at a Long Island Peaceful Protest event in 2020, following the death of George Floyd.. 'Speaking Out' is a woman talking about justice and women's rights. 'Women's Rights' showed a woman with a baby on her back, speaking out about the need for equality in healthcare for women. She stated black women could not get the same quality care as whites, in pregnancy and childbirth.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • egg-tempera on panel 16 x 12" I am committed to creating work that radiates positive vibes and deep contemplation. My artistic aspiration, rooted in respect for Nature and Human beings, is often expressed in abstract form. I also explore human consciousness concepts in figurative works, such as perception, cultural beliefs, traditions, and lifestyles. I work in series or interdisciplinary collections that form a cohesive narrative. I love experimenting with materials and mixing the media in 2D and 3D works as I adapt to environmentally clean techniques, utilizing non-toxic materials. I believe in the interconnectedness of all things. In my work, I link the qualities of the natural elements with various cultural symbols and draw visual parallels of these correlations, using organic forms and interwoven trajectories. I am exploring the dynamic of movement and light - the light reflected on the surfaces of sculpture, and the inner light that works of art emanate, reflecting the artist’s intention. My process is intuitive and so are my findings. The unknown is what inspires me and keeps me going.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • acrylics 29 x 23 x 1.5" I have always enjoyed studying the many subtleties to be found in nature. Color variations, details in objects, as well as the juxtaposition of objects all interest me greatly. In addition, I find symbolism in art and the various moods created by lighting to be very intriguing. But most of all, it is the challenge of combining these and other elements in the painting process that attracts me to create. This image "Spread Your Wings" not only brings to light women striving for independence but at the same time brings awareness to the Burrowing owl that is currently on the endangered species list. Bringing awareness to endangered and threatened species is very important to me. I’m continually striving to bring elements together that invoke a sense of thoughtfulness towards nature and how we affect it.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • oil, acrylic on canvas 40 x 30 x .5" One of my defining principle is establishing an open dialogue between forms and color in all aspects of my artworks, and to inspire a new way of thinking, as abstract art promotes the ability to express freely in an original way. As a trained classical painter, I chose to expand my artistic view on abstract forms that blend lines and color. I strive to capture the mood of the surrounding world through these modalities and am drawn towards the simple, unpretentious, and quotidian in framing my vision of reality. As a versatile artist, I work with traditional materials such as oil, watercolor, ink, and pencil, creating landscapes and still life artworks that truly capture the beauty in seemingly mundane objects and spaces. The creation of my art is a visceral experience, with my art being the tool with which I can express, envision, and share with others in unique ways the concepts of life that drive humanity most—such as love, truth, and the underlying beauty of the everyday experience.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • acrylic paint, ink, graphite, and thread on paper 16 x 16" Art is the language through which I navigate the intricate tapestry of my heritage, stitching together threads of identity and points of view. Reimagined, the Palestinian thob dress and tatreez cross stitch embroidery undergo a metamorphosis into a vibrant painting, capturing the intricate identity and narrative of dispersed refugees, with a particular focus on the experiences of women. It serves as a powerful symbol of diaspora, encapsulating a shared destiny that, at times, may appear ambiguous. Yet, amid this uncertainty, it radiates an unmistakable spirit of conviction and strength, showcasing a resilience that remains impervious to any injustice. This reinterpretation mirrors an enduring commitment to self-determination and an unwavering pursuit of hope for a more promising future, especially for women facing the challenges of displacement.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

The dominant female presence shaping their lives. What could be a more vital character in telling the story of your life? Growing up I felt our school was really lacking in history. I only remember hearing about Inuit and feudalism and serfs and such. Therefore, as I have aged I am revisiting history whenever I can. I recently read about many incredible black women facing terrible racism and hardship but still able to be strong and make a difference in this world. Ida B.Wells was a journalist who exposed the brutality of lynching in the South. She also was a leading figure in the women's suffrage movement, having to go up against the prodominently white Women's Christian Temperance Union. Mary Church Terrell was one of the first African-American women to earn a college degree. She was the first African -American on the school board. She founded the National Association of Colored Women and the National Association of college women. And she was a charter member of the NAACP. What a role model in those rough times!

On Tuesdays we laugh, despair, communicate about politics and wars, and draw-except her drawing has “gone, all gone.” Bereft, we watched another loss slide away. Watercolors bring joy; abstract, delicate strokes of color emerge. ‘Irony’ my portrait and painting of leaves, her favorites like years of women’s pages, scattered.

  • punch needle embroidery on weaver's cloth 30 x 24 x 2" Rejecting the insinuations often thrust upon the female form, this work presents a highly rigid and resolutely geometric portrait of a woman, without a stroke of curvature. It's depiction of a fractured facial profile calls out the notion of discomfort from unwanted attention and mis-placed celebration of beauty that women receive simply by just being out in the world. The Artist presents a reaction-driven portrayal of those exchanges, and simultaneously shows strength embodied in female agency. This work re-examines our perceptions on “social appropriateness”. The Artist's mission is to abstract identifiable features and remove individual characteristics to varying degrees, creating broadly familiar subjects that reflect femininity as part of the Whole rather than the Individual. The textures and micro-patterns in the thread-work accent the idea that there is no definable limit from where the fabric that we wear ends and our more personal and emotional inner weavings begin.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

These are expressionistic portraits that reach for an immediacy that resonates with the viewer and not be considered an attempt at a naturalistic rendition. As a writer/artist/photographer, I have also spent time working with the power of black and white (especially in photography) to convey the intended feeling.

  • watercolor 24 x 28" Painting , for me, is an opportunity to retreat into my imagination and paint not just the subject, but my feelings about my "story. I call this imaginative process “painting with my mind’s eye”; as I work to cultivate artwork that tells the narrative of who I have painted. I dribble, splatter and toil with water-media to create an image that shares the spirit of my subject and her experiences. In recent years, I have been working with ideas inspired by the life of women’s experiences from past eras. In my “ghost story” series, my protagonist is experiencing the past, in terms of her memories, the present in the form of reading and writing her thoughts and the hopes for her future.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • Educator Statement As a Signature Member of the National Association of Women Artists and an educator at the Dartmouth Cultural Center I had the good fortune of participating in this inaugural educational event. The DCC students, Iria DeValles-Vieira, Beth Russo, and Robert Vesprini, accepted the challenge of creating a group artwork. Each of them created two pieces that narrate their interest in the oceans that are part of our everyday life. They started the project in mid-September and completed the work in mid-December. Working in class under my direction and on in their studios as a team. Weekly feedback and critique fuel the process until all were happy with the result. Over the twelve weeks they planned, executed, and delivered these amazing efforts. Each piece uses a construction tube as a substrate that was painted, sanded, decoupaged, and covered with found objects of their choice. These artists have taken numerous abstract painting classes at the DCC. They are quite familiar with each other’s methods and thought processes. We hope to display the artwork series, Neptune’s Rabbit Hole, in various public venues over the next several months. Given the amount of work each artist dedicated to the project they are to be commended for their excellent work as individuals and as a team. I am delighted to have steered the ship on this Imaginary Playground voyage. Participants Names & Ages Beth Russo, over 60 Iria DeValles -Vieira, over 60 Robert Vesprini, over 60
  • Educator Statement My artwork is grounding to my soul. I am taken aback by the beauty and intangible qualities of natural flora: the various textures; the amazing flowers and fruits and foliage; and most of all, the spectacular rejuvenation after what appears to be a most definite death in the bleakness of a cold, dark winter. In our largely urban society, the ability to appreciate our natural surroundings has become dulled-the ability to see the wonder in a tree, the magic and the mystery in a flower, the indescribable peace and contentment that can fill one’s heart. I try to show this to the viewer as my work is a surreal reminder of the peaceful, centered energy of the miraculous, natural living world which surrounds us. My collages are made from torn, recycled brown shopping bags. I am interested in the concept that the bags started out as trees and then were made into paper which was torn and collaged into an image of the natural world, which in itself provided the required inspiration and energy. A quiet harmonic stillness is comprehended.

  • Educator Statement My name is Tamara Zalianyak (Toma Zale), I’m an artist and art instructor for adults. My work is inspired by the vibrant colors of nature and I often use bright and rich colors in my paintings. I believe that inside every adult lives happy and carefree child and my idea is to enthuse the viewer desire for happiness and enjoyment. This approach I bring to my art teaching where I encourage every student to experience the joy of creation and love for their work. I have been an art instructor since 2016, guiding adults though a creative journey at various centers, community spaces, parties and entertainment venues. My lessons cover a range of topics, including color theory, perspective, landscape, seascape, still life, abstract and Neurographica©. Typically, my classes include discussion of the subject(s) or scenery painted, color palette and then followed by step-by-step instructions. I tend to choose bright and more complex compositions as I know these would challenge my students, provide sense of satisfaction at the end of the lesson and inspire for further learning and technic improvements. At the same time my classes are fun, joyful and full of laughter, fostering a warm and friendly atmosphere. They serve as great place for mental rejuvenation, creativity and socialization. It is not just about learning art; it is about creating an environment where minds can recharge, creativity can flourish and individuals can connect through the shared artistic experiences.
  • Educator Statement Teaching is a profound journey for me, a pathway through which I witness the emergence of talent in students as I impart knowledge and skills. It transcends mere skill-sharing; it's a collaborative exploration of creativity and self-discovery. I am thrilled and honored to be a guide, unveiling the distinctive essence of each student's soul that beautifully manifests in their creative expressions. I conducted the "Imaginary Playground" project at Hilltop Country Day School, a community of learners. Tiny books became a part of the mixed media piece right from the start because students wanted to express how important books are. "Inclusive Wonderland Imaginary Playground" became a canvas for discussing and visualizing a better future, fostering self-expression, and nurturing creative collaborations. Meaningful conversations unfolded, centering around the essence of what is important—such as the ability to express our best versions and the profound impact of love for learning. An innovative touch was added as students incorporated a mirror into the artwork's center, inviting viewers to feel included in the experience. Please watch a video where students articulate their collective vision for "Imaginary Playground," showcasing the diverse perspectives of grades K to 8 as they collaboratively crafted an "Inclusive Wonderland Playground." Further, I present individual visions from selected students captivated by this idea, offering unique insights. The 3D art piece titled "Four Seasons" by Colby Wood transports viewers to a magical realm, seamlessly transitioning through the changing seasons. It stands as a testament to creativity and imagination. Here is a link to the video of the piece. Thank you, NAWA, for this project and opportunity.

  • printmaking 8 x 8" Universe Series uses a variety of animals to represent life as they ponder the latest scientific theories concerning the Universe. These playful explorations look toward space and at humankinds' reaction to it. Who hasn't wondered what it would be like to live in the caves of Mars, thought about when we might be drawn into the black hole that keeps our galaxy together, or seen heaven when we look up at the stars? This work of art is a serigraph, or more commonly known as a silkscreen print. It is a hand-made, small-edition print, that uses my graphite drawing as its basis, and is an original work of art. What makes serigraphy the perfect printmaking method for my art, is I can retain areas of pure white paper, capture the tonality of my drawings, and place blocks of intense color that either overlaps part of the image, or lightly kisses the edge of image. Serigraphy is a modern printmaking method with a very old history. Stencil-based, hand-made prints originated during the tenth century in China. They made their first appearance in Europe around the 18th century and are used throughout the world today. This mode of printmaking has evolved over time, so that Modern artists such as Pablo Picasso and Marc Chagall, Pop artists such as Andy Warhol and Peter Max, and Contemporary artists including me, have found it an attractive medium for the creation of fine art.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • acrylic 11 x 10" In the hushed embrace of winter, where nature weaves a tapestry of solitude with its icy tendrils, my creations emerge as reflections of the quiet storm within. Winter, oft perceived as a season of retreat, becomes the crucible for a transformative dance between isolation and inspiration. As we seek refuge indoors from the tempestuous storms that sweep across the landscape, an introspective sanctuary unfurls, cultivating an environment where solitude metamorphoses into the catalyst for unrestrained creativity. This piece is an exploration of the delicate balance between the tranquility of seclusion and the tumultuous beauty of unleashed imagination. Each stroke, each contour, is a testament to the nuanced interplay between the serenity of winter's embrace and the tempestuous bursts of creativity that arise when the world slows down.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • photography 13 x 9" I strive to go beyond a subject's appearance to uncover a deeper, more elusive truth. That truth is revealed to me more vividly through the camera lens than through the naked eye. I see textures, and layers, and the way objects interact in geometric patterns to form other creations. I see shadows and reflections and sometimes an incongruous fusion of these elements. What I see in the camera lens joins with the impressions stamped in my mind's eye, informing the images I create.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • mixed media 11 x 14" My artwork gives me the opportunity to express thoughts and feelings that I am unable to articulate in words. I explore the thought process, revealing multilevel reflections of my inner self and collaborations between nature and culture.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • oil 10 x 10" As a landscape painter, I find nocturnes especially interesting and challenging. There is something special about capturing a feeling a nighttime experience has given us. Bright lights in contrast with cool eerie shadows allow me to explore different color palettes to evoke relatable emotions and memories.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • acrylic 13.5 x 13.5" My work in paint explores the backyard of imagination using ebullient colors in combination with the serendipitous experiences found in processes that use untraditional techniques and alternative tools. The results are oddly harmonious incongruities.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • collage 9 x 12" Different media enable a variety of ideas to form and emerge and small dimensions encourage experimentation. What one produces in monotype on a press contrasts with what one creates using encaustic and can look unlike anything done with paper collage. All three media are direct, spontaneous and playful. Here are three skyscapes or, as I prefer, three fantasies about looking out and up. A good way to begin the new year.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • oil 10 x 12" I paint stories about people and sceneries that are inspired by the complexities and awesomeness of life.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • pastel 12 x 12" I love capturing the essence of life with my art. Using distinctive coloring technique and imaginative approach, I depict the subtle lights, reflections and hidden hues on the subjects. The subjects are either close to my heart, telling a story, or from a memorable moment. Sweet Rain shows a rainy Christmas day in LA.    Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • oil 12 x 12" Each of my paintings represents the beauty of the ocean in an abstract and organic way. I am creating the ocean as it feels, looks, and what it means to our planet. This is conveyed through the movement of the water, the waves and currents like the rhythm of music flowing endlessly and translucently, and as a lens of above looking down at the richness of color and the islands being swallowed by the water as our oceans keep rising. While what is happening to our oceans is a dire situation, we can reflect on its beauty and what we can do to stop more irreversible damage to continue to enjoy the vast, wild, and serene place.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • photography 8 x 12" I love photographing people on the street. This passion developed during travels to Mexico and Cuba. In the past few years, I have been photographing people on the streets of New York City. What excites and energizes me is how spontaneous the process is and how unpredictable people are. Sometimes people are unaware I've taken their picture. Others will agree to pose for several photos. I look for interesting places with interesting forms, light and geometry to serve as a background for the people I choose to photograph. What attracts me could be an expression, an action, detail, or reflection. You may often find me on the streets of New York capturing the fast-paced dynamics of life there.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • acrylic 9 x 12" My work is about finding connections through shared places and experiences. I see beauty in the ordinary. I find inspiration from roadside relics, abandoned alleyways and faded and rusty signage. Often forgotten or overlooked, these places have stories to tell.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • watercolor 11 x 14" I enjoy working in many mediums and have fun while engaged in the creative process. I rarely if ever have an end picture in mind, as I mostly play and experiment in a very fluid way. I enjoy layering, trying new techniques and tools, and using more than one medium in a piece. I step away often to assess my next move and try to stop when it 'feels done'. It's often a very happy surprise, but sometimes the piece goes into the 'someday' pile/file for a future painting or collage. My inspiration comes from nature, color, new art supplies and processes, and language.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • sculpture 11 x 10 x 2" I am interested in the expression of color and reflections as a language. Because of the transparent nature of plexiglass it is possible to create visual statements of color and hue that are not available with other materials. My work explores the nature of individual colors and their interaction and reflections. The composite of the individual components creates a distinctive visual statement. My work is meant to be joyous and celebratory.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • mixed media 9 x 9" If you see a woman walking and occasionally swooping down to pick up a shiny metal object, a sparkling gem, or an interesting piece of metal or plastic, it could be me. I am constantly searching for treasures on the street, at flea markets, in thrift stores, in discarded jewelry, in the trash room in my co-op, and anywhere I go. When I get home, I soak the day’s finds in detergent, rinse and dry them, then squirrel them away in clear plastic boxes and drawers, along with things I purchase, that fill my studio waiting to be turned into a collage, assemblage, or mixed media art piece. I get my inspiration from lots of sources, including museums and galleries, magazines and books, art classes, artists, and my imagination and dreams. I constantly teach myself new techniques, experiment with ways to work with different materials, and share ideas. Many of my pieces come about serendipitously, trying one thing and ending up with something unexpected and wonderful, which is what happened for the pieces I am submitting.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • digital 7 x 10" Creative Spirit Unveiled: Inspired by the holistic concepts of space and time in Indigenous cultures, I explore ways to use light, reflections, shadows, and delicately balanced spatial relationships to reveal the spiritual strength and synergy that evolve with creative expression. I use custom software that allows me to “mold space with light” and create ethereal nth dimensional worlds with spatial and temporal transformations that manifest various perceptual dichotomies.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • mixed media 12 x 12" I enjoy layering in all forms to give my work texture and depth using different mediums and collage elements building on each other. Each layer affects and can transform the previous one. The layers can be a metaphor for life.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • acrylic 11 x 9" As a fine artist: painter and sculptor, I use concepts of abstraction, cubism, and surrealism to explore the elusive qualities of time, energy, and storytelling. My artistic goal is to create seductive surfaces and provocative forms that involve the viewer in an emotional visual adventure. This painting is executed with acrylic paint on a third dimensional gourd. I redefine the use of the natural plant gourd as a third dimensional canvas. The gourd is a member of the pumpkin family. This plant form is dried, opened and the seeds removed. The surface is primed, images are rendered and finished with a protective matte varnish. Although coated inside the vessel may not be used for liquid.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • acrylic 12 x 12" My paintings explore texture and,gesture, and are about the memories and emotions that are evoked in the process. They suggest a sense of place, of peace, of elements of the natural world. Inspiration comes from everywhere: feelings, poetry, nature, things that take my breath away. These are tucked away into a kind of reservoir, echoes of them surfacing later in my paintings Starting with random marks and responding to them intuitively, I approach them with a sense of play, experimentation and an exploration of the materials, as much as an emotional response to the evolving painting. I work in acrylics, encaustics and oil & cold wax and mixed media, all involved with building layers and working back into them, scraping and dissolving to expose what lies beneath. For me, it is all about the process: finding a sense of order, of refuge and letting go; becoming immersed in the moment and the physicality of engaging the surface. A visual energy emerges flowing through the layers, creating depth and an intimate space that invites exploration.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • photography 7 x 5" In my art work, I capture the simple beauty in everyday life, the commonplace or ordinary scenes in the natural and built environment. These images offer us rare moments of solitude, time to slow down and observe the world around us, and to enjoy quiet beauty and serenity. A photograph captures a portion of this beauty and tranquility, offering viewers quiet moments of reflection. I use water and light as beautiful threads that draw the eye in, providing an opportunity to examine nature and the built environment. The quality of light is of paramount importance, defining the textures and forms in nature, and patterns of light and shadow. A strong sense of design is also important in these images. I use the platinum/palladium printing process to capture a softer, painterly effect, evoking late 19th century idyllic landscapes and lending a poetic quality to the images. The platinum/ palladium process, a time-honored process, also renders a rich tonal scale and permanence to the images. It is a time-intensive, hand-made process—from coating the paper with varying mixtures of the platinum/palladium solution to exposing the negatives to the sun.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • photography 15 x 15" "I am passionate about my photography and print all my images, spending hours in the "Light Room". This gives me a true sense of freedom in expressing my work. I want my work to enhance my viewers' imaginations and to lift their spirits. I hope that what I see with my heart becomes what the viewer sees with their eyes."   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

  • oil 10 x 10" All I ever wanted to be was smaller. I’ve found refuge from this compulsive desire by allowing myself space in the work. In my body of work, autobiographical paintings depict tender moments from my day to day life. Portraits of my partner and I provide queer representation void of hyper sexualized or traumatic imagery, with this I begin to disrupt heteronormative narratives, and provide images of queer joy. In focusing on the figure through a queer feminine gaze I create colorful and carefully composed oil paintings that allow bodies that are often asked to shrink, a place to be vulnerable and take up space. Candid photos often acting as my source material allow insecurities to penetrate the most loving of works. Through eye level and framing the casual nature of the references invites the viewer in as a participant rather than a voyeur. There is sympathy and authenticity to the rendering of each subject, with careful consideration put into capturing the volume of the forms. My emphasis is always on the sense of touch, creating works that are tender and where each push and pull of the skin is felt. Thoughtfully placed line and vivid color works to exploit the most tense areas of the work, helping each to feel uncomfortably intimate.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • sculpture 7 x 7 x 4" I created a large California brown pelican wall relief for a commission at a children's hospital in 2016. I decided to create this smaller one with a window box.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • mixed media 12 x 12" Currently, my work has focused on military spouses, in the form of figurative and portraiture paintings. The work explores and expresses the psychological impacts felt by this subculture. This small portrait is one from a large series focusing on identity; military spouses are organized and named by their "sponsor's/ spouses's last four" of their social security numbers- not by their name...   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • printmaking 10 x 8" My purpose in making art is to touch the ineffable, to go beyond words into the deep belly of creativity. It is to meet myself in the wellspring and have a conversation with the viewer, to communicate in a deep and intimate way at first sight, in an instant. I strive only to be in harmony with each line, each splash of color and splatter of ink as it strikes the painting surface, to reveal what is already there. The experience of making marks gets truly exciting when I resist the impulse to name what I’m seeing take shape and open myself up to the possibility of not knowing, of just seeing and experiencing whatever is in front of me – what it is saying, what it is becoming. To let it do me rather than me do it. I wish for anyone who stands or sits in front of a piece of art created in my studio this same experience. I don’t want viewers to know or feel what I feel. I want them to know and feel whatever they feel. That is for me the true nature of all art: beauty that is unrepeatable and unnamable.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.  
  • photography 10 x 8" I am passionate about photography as an art form. In a world overfull with images, ideas, and messages streaming at us at warp speed, there is profound value in the thoughtfulness, the provocation, the silent aesthetic, the power of a single image made with the vision and ever evolving techniques of fine art photography.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.
