Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.With all the tension in the world with aggression and war, I wanted to create an image that represented the end of the conflict. There is a feeling of exhaustion of the soldier's limp arm. There is no weapon in his open hand. The soldier has given everything for a cause, but his desire to continue has come to an end. Let the symbolism of the toga, wing of victory and laurel wreath inspire dialog and compromise to bring peace.

Moment in the Movement oil on canvasAdditional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.Size of Piece: 30 x 40 .75Moment in the Movement is inspired by Bonnie Kerness, a friend and nationally-recognized leader in the U.S. prison abolition movement. Here, Bonnie is rendered using a photo I took of her during a strategy meeting of local advocates in her 50-year role as Director of the Prison Watch Program, an arm of the American Friends Service Committee. Hunched in a gesture of weighty reflection, but perhaps also in prayer, she is cloaked by a life-affirming blue-green that contrasts with an ominousness dark background. The watery movement of her spectacular crown of white hair exists in tension with sharp, foreboding shapes surrounding, and within, her face. It was my aim to evoke a sense of bruising vulnerability, a compassionate melancholy, and also a kind of populist regality.

South Mountain Trail pastel on paper 17 x 21 My artwork is an expression of the joy and peace I experience while enjoying nature. I choose to work with soft pastels because I love their versatility and directness of application. The beautiful pure pigments are perfect for depicting the way light plays off the colors and textures in nature. This pastel painting was inspired by a hike near my home in Rockland County, NY. I hope to convey not only the beauty of this scene but also the experience of the hike. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

The Cloisters Museum in Shadow and Light Watercolor 30 x 22
Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.For those of us fortunate enough to live in Upper Manhattan NYC, Fort Tryon Park is our own mini Central Park and also something more. With the Cloisters Museum serving as its "castle on a hill", the Park with its lush landscaping in the same English Romantic style as Central Park, but with sweeping views of the Hudson River and the Palisades of NJ beyond, Fort Tryon Park is a place that brings out the best of us. It is a little-known gem, a neighborhood treasure that reminds us that we can daily experience renewed awe in its beauty, find calm in its idealized version of nature, delight in its wildlife, and take heart in how we and our neighbors and visitors alike smile, say hello, and find common cause in our love for the place. In the daily stresses of urban life that can sometimes bring out the worst in its residents, the Park is a place where we access a different side of life, a place we all agree that we treasure despite other disagreements. And in so doing, it is a place that prompts us to be a better, nobler version of ourselves. -

In Cissy's Eyes watercolor 10.5 x 13.5 framed size: 20 x 24 In Cissy's Eyes This painting is of my cousin at the age of about 3.

She Who Endures watercolor 14 x 13 framed size: 24 x 23 She Who Endures What I love about working with watercolor is its unique freshness, its clean sparkle, clarity and luminosity. Every painting has the potential to emerge as a celebration of the medium. I especially enjoy experimenting with color, and with many layers of glazing, creating harmonious mixes, using veils of color to produce subtle changes and fine nuances in my work. Each painting becomes a learning process, a fascination with what will happen as I walk along its path. Each painting has its own vibration, its own energy. Every success becomes very precious because with watercolor, one can never repeat any part of the work in exactly the same way.

A Cautionary Tale freehand digital painting, archival pigment on canvas 16 x 20 In "A Cautionary Tale" we see a young woman becoming an elderly woman before our eyes. She has wasted her precious life, lost in social media for decades and decades. The phone has become distorted. On the walls the years overlap and melt from one year to another. The calendar also displays the emptiness of her life. This painting was inspired after reading several articles about how many young people spend an average of 6 hours a day on social media.

I see You monoprint 24 x 24 I See You is a monoprint about seeing another person without judgment or prejudice. It reflects a desire to move beyond societal labels—money, gender, nationality, religion, or age—and to encounter another human being as they are. The work centers on the eye as a symbolic gateway to the soul. Across cultures, the gaze has been understood as a direct channel of presence and truth. In Kundalini practice, particular attention is given to the left eye, believed to be connected to the heart and emotional center. This idea informs the composition, where the act of looking becomes a form of connection rather than observation. I See You invites a moment of pause—to look without projection, to recognize without categorizing. At its core, the work affirms that genuine human connection, beyond constructed identity, is one of the most essential experiences we have.

Crater Dreams collage 22 x 18 In this work, I explore the collapse of linear time and the fragile space between memory and imagination, where past, present, and future exist simultaneously. The landscape unfolds as a shifting terrain, with figures suspended within fractured environments, caught between inner states and external forces. I am drawn to moments of instability, as the familiar begins to dissolve. The composition reflects how memory fragments and reassembles experience, creating spaces that feel both intimate and disorienting. The piece develops through a process of collecting and editing found imagery, which is printed, hand-cut, and assembled into layered physical compositions. Through fragmentation and reassembly, I construct environments that merge the real and the imagined, resulting in an archival Vibrachrome print on aluminum that preserves the tactile presence of the hand-cut composition.

Landscape 105 oil on canvas 12.5 x 12.5 The Earth’s diverse surface is fascinating. The vegetative environments invite viewers to visit a place. Local light and atmosphere affect the plant life that thrives, the colors we see and experience of mood and energy. These paintings explore memory and landscape with complex spatial environments that hover between painterly realism and abstract passages. Raised in rural Wisconsin and moving to Florida and Texas in my first thirteen years piqued my interest in diverse landscapes and flora. Whether a mass of color blur or the focal point, each is recording its environment and time. My creative practice, focusing on materials and process, reflects my chemical engineering background. The bold use of initial marks that swirl through the backgrounds of compositions, echo and amplify the rhythms of the naturally created elements. Visual density from transparent to opaque are leveraged in creating organic textures. Color is a vehicle to convey energy from nature. This work is my attempt to keep what time has already taken.

Central Park Stroll oil painting 20 x 17 This painting was inspired by a late afternoon walk through Central Park when the low sun transformed an ordinary path into something luminous and unforgettable. I was drawn to the long shadows, glowing trees, and the quiet rhythm of people moving through the light. Rather than describe every detail, I wanted to capture the feeling of that moment like the warmth, stillness, and sense of connection found in everyday life. Using expressive brushwork and layered color, I focused on atmosphere and the way light can shape both a place and our experience of it. My hope is that viewers are reminded of their own simple, beautiful moments outdoors when the world feels peaceful and full of possibility.

Golden Hour oil on canvas 25 x 37 This painting explores a network of entangled vegetation in an imaginary tropical landscape. I try to capture light, entwined linear elements and brilliant color of these wild plant forms bursting with life. It's a symphony of movement, color and rhythmic mark-making that culminates in that ethereal light circulating in the center, pulsing with a spiritual energy. It becomes a metaphor for my inner landscape with its tangled network of nerves seeking balance and calm.

I Am A Woman photography 36 x 24 I AM WOMEN, NOT A HOST On June 24, 2022, when Roe v. Wade was overturned, thousands gathered in New York City in urgent protest. I stood not only as a witness, but as a participant, using my camera as both instrument and voice. These two images form a single statement. On the front of her body, the words I Am Woman declare identity, autonomy, and presence. On her back, Not a Host confronts the reduction of women to vessels. Together, they hold the tension between visibility and erasure, power and vulnerability. Photographed in the surge of collective resistance, this woman’s body became both canvas and proclamation. She carries the language of protest on her skin, transforming flesh into testimony. Presented in Seneca Falls, where the women’s rights movement first took organized form, these images connect past to present. They ask what has changed, what remains fragile, and how we continue to stand — visible, embodied, and unyielding.

Over the Edge acrylic paint on hardboard (masonite) panel 53 x 17 In this painting, I used a calligraphic style of mark-making to explore the rhythm of a waterfall and its movement down a luxurious glen. The water ripples and splashes on its way to shoot forth in a glorious spray over the edge. Its vibrancy is echoed in the surrounding landscape. I used a tall, thin format to enhance the elegance of the waterfall, with rocks and ledges adding shape and structure to the water’s journey.

Beauty in the Worn mixed media with found objects, vintage linen, embroidery, used book cover, drawing and ink. 9 x 12 Beauty in the Worn was inspired by my love of aged materials and the stories they carry. I am drawn to objects that hold a history and a fragility that newer things cannot contain. I find beauty in the tender stories that live in that which has been carried - soften - and - imperfectly preserved. Worn edges, faded surfaces, and delicate textures become part of the narrative speaking to time, touch and memory. This work resonates more deeply with me as I grow older and experience the privilege of aging and the need to preserve my history.

Summer Sounds acrylic on cradled wood 14 x 11 I recently developed a series of gestural paintings and drawings that translate the experience of music into visual form.

There is a sense of awareness of what is happening in a single moment Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Pattern Play acrylic monoprints collaged on canvas 20 x 20 Pattern Play explores rhythm and visual momentum through a collage of my monoprints, developed from an initial black-and-white composition sketch and realized through printing, cutting, and assembly. Strips of black, white, and gray carry varied textures and mark-making—ghosted prints, scraped surfaces, and stenciled motifs—that create a tactile field of repetition and interruption. Small, deliberate red accents act like visual punctuation, pulling the eye back and forth across the plane and breaking the monochrome rhythm with moments of heat and pause. The work investigates the dialogue between order and improvisation: geometric alignment and repeated patterning hold the composition together, while unexpected textures and irregular edges introduce vitality and tension. Layering is central to the piece, inviting viewers to trace the history of each mark and to experience pattern as movement rather than a static surface Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Global Series - Bear Hugs ink on paper 18 x 18 Global Series is meant as a gentle reminder that humanity is not separate from nature but a part of it. In Bear Hugs, polar bears are portrayed in a circular format to represent life on Earth and a loving embrace. The red dot represents the Sun, warmth and the need to stop and consider the effect humanity has on the natural world. This is a diptych of serigraphs so the pricing is for the pair. Serigraphy, commonly known as silkscreen printing, is the hand-made printmaking mode. The most important part of the process for Zimmerman is making great drawings. She understands this and creates her drawings, not only as works of art on their own, but thinking about how they will translate into serigraphs. Her thoughtful use of the white of the paper, her textured shading and her attention to the negative space are all essential in her drawings and her silkscreens.

Zoo Series - Tundraprintmaking12 x 12Zoo Series communicates the interconnectedness of life in a series of circles of life drawings which I made into serigraphs. They go along with related animal tales/poems titled Magic Circle. Tundra is a serigraph which used one of those graphite drawings as its basis. When I created my drawing, I thought about how it would translate into a serigraph. I then scanned, refined, and adjusted the scanned image before making a bitmap of it to be printed on a transparency film. I developed the transparency onto a screen, which was coated with a light sensitive emulsion in a developer. After rinsing out the screen I applied ink through the screen onto the paper below. When I edited the print, I added additional colors by painting ink directly onto the print. What makes serigraphy, or more commonly known as silkscreen printmaking, the perfect printmaking mode for my art is, I can retain areas of pure white paper, capture the tonality of my drawings, and place areas of intense color that either overlaps part of the image, or lightly kisses the edge of image.

Caffenaited oil on cradled board 14 x 14 Facial expression and gesture provide me the impetus to make art.

Choice of color and loose brush strokes add to the ambiguity of his thoughts. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Apple Pie Dark 11 x 14 oil on canvas These two paintings began with the simple pleasure of setting up to bake an apple pie, but what interested me most was the contrast in how completely the mood could change with light. In one painting, the scene feels like morning: bright apples, pale colors, and the happy energy of creating something tasty. In the other, the same objects feel quiet and private, almost like someone is baking alone late at night. There is comfort in it, but also a little mystery. I love the contrast between the two—the airy, cheerful start of the day and the darker, more contemplative moment. That contrast is the heart of the pair, and I would love to see them hung together as a diptych. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Failed Escape mixed media: acrylic and paper on cradled panel 22 x 22 On a trip to Monaco, I was captivated by the intricate tilework on the walls, each tile a small masterpiece of color and pattern. As I studied them, I imagined secret lives beneath their orderly arrangement. What if the tiles were not fixed in place, but simply resting on the wall, free to shift and move? In Failed Escape, the tiles dream of slipping beyond the surface that confines them. They shuffle into new positions, test the edges, and try to break from the monotony of their daily view. But escape proves harder than they imagined. Some lose balance, some get stuck, and some end up where they began, a little worn but wiser. The wall becomes a stage for their search for change, reflecting a deeply human longing for freedom, novelty, and life beyond the pattern.

What We Carry Unnamed acrylic and oil pastel on canvas with black float frame 13.5 x 13.5 My work gives visual form to the complex, often unspoken emotional landscape of women in transition —those of us moving between identities, roles, and expectations. It is a space that can feel both expansive and disorienting, where language often falls short. I paint the emotions women are taught to carry—but never taught how to name. Through abstraction, I hold what is difficult to articulate: layered, shifting emotional states shaped by transition, accumulation, and change. These works become a way of making visible what is usually carried in silence. My process is informed by years in a precise, detail-oriented profession where structure and discipline are essential. In my art studio, I loosen that control, allowing intuition, interruption, and emotional response to lead. This shift creates a visual language that balances restraint with release. Each painting is built through layered gestures—marks added, obscured, and rediscovered over time—becoming a record of both intention and surrender. I am drawn to the space where form dissolves and reassembles, where clarity and ambiguity coexist, and the viewer is invited to navigate rather than resolve. Ultimately, my work is about emergence: what becomes visible when layers—both seen and unseen—are allowed to remain in dialogue.
