Holding Pattern oil on stretched canvas 24 x 20 One Monday morning realizing I had to make several phone calls which would require spending forever on hold, (tedious music included) the image of Death of Marat came to mind, so I grabbed a canvas and painted how I felt.

Conducting Strings in Color watercolor pencils and Neocolor 2 drawing on Rives BFK paper adhered to and varnished on cradled wood panel 24 x 34 Conducting Strings in Color captures the immediacy and energy of live performance through gesture and color. Working in mixed media, I suggest the motion of music through the movement of the conductor and musicians, allowing line, shape, and color to carry rhythm across the surface. The drawing seeks to translate sound into visual form—where marks pulse, overlap, and respond—evoking the shared intensity and fleeting nature of a musical moment.

Lesson Learned (My Octopus Teacher) acrylic/ mixed media on canvas 24 x 24 Two canvases side by side, with only different hues of blue in mind I started painting. No clear idea of a theme, no connection yet, only the joy and the struggles of the process. Half way through the painting an interview with the director of My Octopus Teacher on NPR guided me to an entirely different direction. Rarely I find myself being touched to this extent by a subject. Most of the rest of my journey I was in the flow, as if I were right there under the water with this wise guy. To the contrary of others’ suggestions I insisted not seeing the documentary until I finished the paintings. When I did who could stop the tears? No one. Especially the other of the two paintings, Save The Seaforest, made me believe I was living in this underwater world while creating.

The Path acrylic on board, paper, skins 24 x 24 My garden has an Eastern Lantern which I love to daydream in. It was a special gift which I decided to tell its story thru my art. I did in bold colors and strived for complexity of abstract with a bit of cohesion. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    

Nautilus Dream printmaking 10 x 15 My work explores and reflects upon serendipitous experiences in nature, seeking to find the spirit within, be it within the air, the water, the skies, the landscape, or within people or animals. It celebrates adventures in nature, responding to and reflecting the sensory awareness in each situation, to the bright or fading light conditions, exuberance of movement, of a story unfolding, and the ensuing emotional response of the beholder.

Ethereal Valley oil on cradled panel 18.25 x 14.25 The artwork depicts an alien landscape bathed in an ethereal, almost otherworldly glow. Much of my work is categorized as Magic Realism and it's an outgrowth of my work in Science Fiction and Fantasy illustration over the years. This piece was an approach to an alien environment that is far more otherworldly, however, my inspiration came from a place on Earth, The Valley of Dreams located in New Mexico. My formations are not exactly the same, they are varied and more surreal and I made a point to not copy any of the formations. The overall atmosphere is serene and yet awe inspiring. The piece suggests a sense of exploration, discovery and a hint of the vast unknown mysteries of the cosmos. Ethereal Valley was also chosen as an interior illustration for the March issue of Utopia Magazine.

The Raven bronze on steel base sculpture 18 x 16 x 12 Lee Hutt studied painting in Belgium as an undergraduate. There, her love of the classical traditions in art was encouraged. Pursuing a course in psychology, Lee received a masters degree in science from Columbia University. Lee continued taking art classes at the New School where she was influenced by the work of Jacob Lawrence and Chaim Gross. This piece was inspired by a raven that lived on a tree outside Lee's home in South Hadley. Sculpted from clay and cast in bronze at the Modern Art Foundry in Long Island City.

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.

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.

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.

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.    

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. The bright orange color and the figurative combination with cubistic elements makes it a refreshing visual.

As the wave turns oil on panel 15 x 18 This painting is a plein air painting. Moving water is a tricky thing to paint, but yet it is hypnotizing to observe. I did the work, so you can just relax and enjoy. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    

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.

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.
