Garden of Happiness acrylic with pastes on canvas 37 x 37 Although my practice emphasizes abstract expressionism, I often paint florals when I am feeling gray. At the time that I put brush to paint and created Garden of Happiness I was struggling with a health issue. When I was able to get up the energy to face an empty canvas, I visualized sprays of greenery and thought if I could manage to bring out their color, just their sight would help me feel alive again.

When It Rains It Pours mixed media on canvas 36 x 36 I used various fabrics, gel medium, and acrylic to create this work, laying out the material first with no particular direction in mind. As with many of my works, the connection to the landscape becomes evident and often serves as a metaphor for what is happening culturally and socially.

No Smoking oil on canvas 14 x 14 I don’t have any statement. Artwork should talk by itself. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    

Tropical Fugue fiber art 64 x 61 Tropical Fugue was inspired by memories of Bali. Songbird serenades, expansive skies, and fleeting, cherished moments. My process is rooted in trust and a willingness to surrender control. The real magic unfolds in the midst of making. I embrace spontaneity and the unexpected, allowing fabrics to speak and respond to one another in a vibrant, evolving conversation. For this piece, I began by assembling organic fragments of varying shapes and sizes into intuitive motifs. These forms gradually suggested bird-like presences, emerging as focal points. Set against a white background, I arranged and rearranged these silhouettes, creating rhythm and movement. Surrounding borders were added to frame and contain their energy. Freehand machine quilting became the final layer, adding depth, cohesion, and texture. Each fabric carries its own history, gathered from distant places, its story stitched into the whole.

Powerplay oil on canvas 12 x 12 In Powerplay, motherhood emerges not as a quiet sentiment, but as a force field—dynamic, generative, and passionately alive. Vertical marks rise and fall across the canvas like figures in motion, reaching out, protecting, supporting. Color becomes a language of this amazing emotional journey. Electric blues and violets hold space for contemplation, while bursts of orange, red, and lime pulse with urgency, joy, and the unpredictable intensity of primal love. The surface is thick with revision, each gesture layered over another, mirroring the way the journey of motherhood is continuously adapted through the experience of raising a child. Everything is moving, as we learn and grow in ways we could never have predicted. Ultimately, this work is a meditation on the profound transformation that motherhood offers. It honors the way maternal love reshapes the landscape of the self—layer by layer, mark by mark.

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.

Six Chapters collage: cut and torn paper on black paper background 12 x 15 I like working in series, and I decided to divide this collage into six distinct parts that I also think form a coherent whole. The chapters are meant to evoke a story that involves a woman, but she and her story are mysterious and unclear. The visual ambiguity is largely due to the juxtaposition of many pieces of paper in a great variety of colors.

One If By Land acrylic on canvas 12 x 15 I'm an intuitive, abstract painter, guided by movement and color relationships in my work. As I work, brushstrokes or applications of paint evolve into layered, overlapping shapes that merge and dissolve into floating, amorphous forms. Each painting is an open field for experimentation. I am delighted as surprises emerge and discoveries unfold, bringing constant new beginnings during my process and in my practice.

Orange Crush acrylic painting on stretched canvas 13 x 13 Orange Crush has a funky groove to it, seemingly one of a new adaptation of my surreal abstract style.

Salty Earth and Cold Tongues charcoal 30 x 42 Salty Earth and Cold Tongues, was inspired by the weight of a physical fall in my sixties and the emotional wounds felt when a person uses hurtful words. My body feels the impact and endurance of both pains. Salt evokes both wound and preservation, while adding crystallisation to the drawing. The stinging is felt from harsh words, while the body is trying to heal and move forward. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    

Animated Forms (Variation VII): The Blues acrylic on gallery wrapped stretched canvas 13.5 x 13.5 The natural world and the life around us have always inspired me. They are the sparks that start the process. When painting with acrylics I work between the boundaries of abstraction and representation. Reducing the subjects to bold, simplified forms, I create lots of excitement, tension and lots of space on the canvases. Over time, the paintings in the Blues series have become increasingly abstract and find that wherever I look in nature there is order, and the center of that order is very geometric, very mathematical.

Dragon Fly stainless steel sculpture 23 x 10 x 9 My decision to design a boot stems from a fascination with the precision and technical mastery required by the form. Working with rigid, textured metal, I explored the intersection of the fragile and the resilient. My creative process focused on the tension between strength and weightlessness, leading me to adorn the boot with intricate, self-fabricated dragonflies and butterflies. Together, they symbolize transformation and freedom. This work reflects my passion for merging nature with technology, challenging the viewer to see a sculpture that exists at the boundary of fine art and question if it is a wearable design.

Shades of Cool colored pencil 30 x 23 "Shades of Cool," is a portrait of my son, David: arms crossed, head held high, and sporting hip sunglasses to emanate a cool and confident vibe. Folded arms display authority, power, and a "badass" persona. Sunglasses symbolize mystery, coolness, protection, and status, acting as a barrier that hides emotions and creates privacy while projecting confidence, power, and a rebellious or cool mindset. My composition intertwines the realistic and fantastical worlds, with the powerful, daring, use of vibrant complimentary colors to offset his jaunty, optimistic attitude. This dynamic pairing of orange and blue captures vibrancy and balance, excitement and serenity, as well as energy alongside peace, to evoke many shades of cool.
