Sāji ga hassei suru (a surge occurs) II oil 24 x 36 Sāji ga hassei suru (a surge occurs) II refers to the place of change, the great spirit, the believer's heart, seen as the creator and sustainer of all things. As artists, we are the creators and sustainers of our creations, representing yin and yang—a surge of positive and negative energies fused by one's attitude and stance.

Presence and The Past acrylic 24 x 24 My work explores the intersection of individual presence and collective history, navigating the nuanced complexities of the feminine perspective. I paint women engaged in introspection, inhabiting a space where reflection intersects with lived experience. Through a process of layering and refinement, an interplay between color, form, and surface depth is revealed. This physical history serves as a metaphor, honoring the influence of women whose stories weave the fabric of shared legacy. By prioritizing the female gaze, I visualize the 'seen and unseen' — embodying the resonance between the external world and the internal life of the figure.

We Came So Far oil, pastel, acrylic goache, and charcoal on arches oil paper mounted on panel 33 x 24 We're born into our specific time and location- with its own set of cultural norms and realities. I've found myself trying to untangle these. Faced with nostalgia and engaged in personal reckoning, my paintings use broken color and line to create and then break the very figures I render. The surface becomes rich with layered marks as I scratch and draw into the paper. Slowly building the surface, I question more of my own understandings and those driving change. This forms a dialog between myself, those who have come before me, and those who will come. The women are never fully rendered or depicted as smooth and perfect; nostalgia lies- it was never perfect. Each painting also asks the overarching question "What would they say?" These women, standing near but not too close to a house, seem to say, "We came so far." And then, "But where are we going?" Those who came before us demand that we not forget or succumb to nostalgia; nostalgia for a past that was never designed with women's full potential in mind, that seems to be sweeping our country again.

Figurines for Marija Gimbutas stains and metallic paint on cartapesta 8.5 x 2.5 x 1.5 If I hadn't been an artist I would have been an archeologist. The woman I would have bowed to and chased on every dig was Gimbutas. Marija Gimbutas was archaeologist and anthropologist known for her research into the Neolithic and Bronze Age cultures. She theorized that the arrival of the Kurgs—the original Proto-Indo-Europeans-- shows how cultures of domination and patriarchy took over the Old European civilization which was centered around the worship of the Earth, The Great Goddess. To make the figurines, I first made small clay sculptures and wrapped them in paper, like 'mummies.' When paper and hardening agents dried, I pulled out the clay sculpture, repaired the wound, and then painted neolithic patterns, similar to the patterns Gimbutas found on pottery from her digs in Eastern Europe, on the figurines.

She Spoke Up XXIII, Ayanna Elizabeth Johnson charcoal on arches paper 22.5 x 30 The ‘She Spoke Up’ series began as a reaction to the destructive and inflamed political and social climates. With the cascading revelations of the Me Too movement, centennial anniversary of the adoption of the 19th Amendment, surreal landscape of the Covid pandemic unfolding, and the incessant assault on democracy by our elected politicians, I chose to elevate the work and words of women who have spoken truth to power, pursued freedom and equity, and transformed the broader world. Collectively the series stands as a response to so much misogyny, ill intent, sexism and obstruction. Parrot fish, symbolizing adaptability, possibility and freedom, are potent symbols of creative potential, and the world’s intricacies and healing mechanisms. I integrated specific bird and natural imagery into each work in the series, finding their symbolism often uncannily mirrored the characteristics of each woman. The series reflects on the struggles and inequities of the past, underscores the fundamental challenges that still exist, highlights the transformative achievements of intelligent, courageous women, and suggests possible tomorrows.

R.B.J:Justice stains, foils, lashes, stitching, Elizabethan ruffle on cartapesta 12 x 7 x 6 During the COVID-19 pandemic I made masks--not for health protective reasons or to distribute to health care workers but to record what was happening during that regime changing era. In September 2020, our honorable Supreme Court justice Ruth Baden Ginsburg died. Like many women and men, I looked up to her and admired her accomplishments, particularly appreciating her advocacy for gender equality and women's rights, and for encouraging women to speak up about their experiences with sexual harassment. I honored her life with a cool-blue mask, stitched on her eyeglasses so she could continue to look over us and our lives, and amplified her signature collar with an Elizabethan ruffle. The mask is part of my "The Future Has an Ancient Face" series of 24 masks that chronicle political, cultural and medical events during the 2 years of the 2020-2022 pandemic.

Help Us! digital, archival photograph 10 x 8 My photography portfolios deal with beauty that I find in simple places. I search for art in places often overlooked by people rushing by: street abstractions formed by the effects of traffic and the erosion of painted lines; art in the visible layers of torn papers restructured by random anonymous participants; torn ads; changes from weathering; oxidized rusted surfaces creating patterns and vistas; reflections in puddles; ponds, or store windows; ice patterns; simple arrangements of flowers and fruit at markets.

Embrace Yourself As You Are found objects 9 x 5 x 5 I am a narrative found object assemblage sculptor. This work is from my Relationship With Female Beauty/Image Series. Women are bombarded with images of how we should look, what we should wear, the products we should use. Our face, our hair, our bodies are judged by some unrealistic standard. No wonder so many young girls struggle with body image. At the other end of the spectrum, we older women often feel we are invisible. I do feel that some women are now standing up to this barrage and reminding us that we are each beautiful in our own way. I am trying to do my part in this effort. I started collecting vintage compacts and beauty products and was motivated to create a series of work reminding us that we are so much more than our reflection in the mirror. All women and girls, all sizes, shapes, colors, and ages should feel beautiful about themselves. Whether you are a cowgirl or a ballerina "Embrace Yourself As You Are."

Edith oil on Wood Panel 4 x 4 Portraits are immeasurably fascinating to me for their breadth of expression. They can articulate an expansive language of mood and atmosphere. They can convey intent, brashness or delicacy, anxiety or hesitation. A viewer can vicariously venture into the realm of a face to invent a story about a person. I wanted to make these portraits in a miniature scale, so to bring a viewer close in proximity to the individual moods of each woman. They are intimate in scale yet vigorously alive with thick paint. Each portrait is 4" X 4", oil on wood panel. Painted with tiny brushes, the portraits of these women nevertheless remain hugely present. They reflect an unshakable vitality immersed in atmospheric spaces. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

The Falconi Twins (Second Violin, Principal Viola) photo and pigmented beeswax combines on Kozo and wood panel 36 x 24 I create visual biographies honoring communities whose narratives have been marginalized, erased, or never recorded. "The Falconi Twins" portrays the resilience of two women from my childhood town who defied societal expectations in the 1970s. These women lived together, posed as twin sisters, and dressed identically to evade the scrutiny of the conservative community. In truth, they were a gay couple seeking refuge in a world that struggled to accept them for who they truly were. This portrait is a fusion of orphaned vintage photographs, my photographs, abstract drawings, and antique ephemera in subtle layers of pigmented beeswax on Kozo. I replicated a solitary figure to create a twin, etched intricate patterns and sgraffito onto the platform, balustrade, and figures to weave a narrative of secrets and shared experiences that remain unreadable to outsiders. This is a portrait of the power of love, resilience, and enduring bonds. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Stiff acrylic monoprint on paper 12 x 9 From a series of prints exploring the condition of our physical bodies, women’s physical selves, and what they mean to our lives.

Tribute acrylic, Photos printed on vellum collaged on cradled birch board 18 x 24 I’m half-Japanese, half-white. My father’s Japanese-American family was unjustly held in the concentration camp in Minidoka, ID during WWII only because of their ancestry. Around 120,000 Japanese-Americans were rounded up on the West Coast and imprisoned. Over half of them were American citizens but were deprived of their constitutional right to habeas corpus--the right to defend themselves in court. I created "Tribute" to honor my relative Geri Takahashi who was put into concentration camp, along with two of her brothers, a sister and her mother, at the age of 21. She was born in the USA so was an American citizen. She had never even been to Japan yet was treated as if she was a war criminal. Being unjustly incarcerated at a young age affected her self esteem and she never dated or married, she just worked 6 days a week and volunteered in her Protestant church. Like many of her generation who were in camp, she would never speak of her time there. My hope is that "Tribute" tells the story that she could not.

Petticoats and Pickett Signs encaustic 12 x 9 Suffragettes may seem like ancient history but voting rights are not as stable or guaranteed as we may believe, even in the USA. This series of three images chronicle the ongoing strife. Women secured their vote after much suffering and resistance in 1920. They were dressed in their finest in a time when petticoats were still part of fashion. Black men were granted the right to vote via ratification in 1870 but faced violence and intimidation at the polls. It was not until 1965 in the advent of the Civil Rights movement and the Voting Rights Act before all people regardless of race or gender were promised the true right to vote. Men and women linked arms and marched together. Tragically in 2018, Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida was another site in a horrific trend of school shootings. Here the students rebelled against the false comfort of “thoughts and prayers”. They rallied and protested on a level never seen before. They called for safer gun laws. Never Again MSD foundation was formed by survivor Emma Gonzales. This threat started a movement to change the voting age from 18 to 20 to prevent this impassioned and articulate group of young people from making a stand with their vote. They gathered in blue t-shirts with simple white lettering: Parkland. No further explanation needed.

Thalamian Rower on the Trireme Olympias printmaking 14 x 11 framed size: 22 x 18 Thalamian Rower on the Trireme “Olympias” is a self-portrait as a rower on the replica of an ancient Greek trireme, which I rowed as a member of the 200 person crew for an archaeological experiment in 1988 in the Aegean Sea. The thalamian rowers were mostly women for this project due to our smaller stature, having to fit on the lowest level however we were strong enough to wield the 40lb oars for periods of 20-30 minutes.

Familiar Rose intaglio 8 x 5.5 Framed Size: 17 x 14 This is a portrait of Rose Greenfield Cliffer, 1901-1979. The solarplate etching was made from a picture of her in her 20's in the 1920's. Rose was born in Romania, and came to the US as a child, as (Jewish?) girls could not be educated at that time in Romania.. She was elegant (hat and white gloves), strong and hard-working. She was a seamstress, a Marshall Fields store model, and the mother of my father and his twin brother (died at age 6) and my aunt Carole Cliffer Kramer. Her "bob" speaks of the fashion of the time, and my heart speaks to the thoughtful gaze that was captured by this young woman, my grandmother. She had a "green thumb," kept a jade plant in her window that overlooked Lake Michigan, smoked Kent cigarettes, and taught us many card games. I felt the print needed my touch, so added the line and pastel work to enhance the image. I continue to honor her memory.

In Full Recognition No. 3 acrylic 12 x 12 Framed Size: 18 x 18 In my contribution of a series of three images to the She the People exhibit, I use the monoprint process to explore the delicate boundary between being seen and being forgotten. Inherently, a monoprint is a singular, unrepeatable ghost of an image—a fitting metaphor for the unique yet often marginalized lives of women throughout our nation’s history, particularly women of color in our national narrative. The fading image of the woman in resplendent headdress (In Full Recognition No. 1) represents the systemic invisibility and erasure that have long sought to diminish her power. As the image recedes over the second and third prints in the series (In Full Recognition No. 2 and No. 3), it also demands a more intentional gaze and prompts feelings of grasping to fully memorialize her before she is gone. What remains when a collective voice is suppressed? What is reclaimed when we center Her-story? This piece does not simply mourn collective loss for what could have been but aims to transform that loss into an empowered future where every woman is fully recognized and heard.

Coming to Life thread, watercolor paper, and foam board 24 x 18 I combine color, geometric shapes, and symmetry to create compositions that feel harmonious and invite the viewer to look closer. By stitching, cutting, and layering paper, I create windows of depth within each piece. My work explores themes of everyday thoughts, feelings, and experiences, aiming to foster a sense of personal connection that feels comforting, empathetic, and familiar. A recurring theme in my work is resilience. I have always been inspired by the strength and beauty of flowers, which bloom even in challenging conditions. Their resilience reminds me that, even when I feel helpless or frustrated by circumstances beyond my control, I can choose optimism and hope. I can choose to thrive and bloom.

Crosswalk 3 printmaking 8 x 10 Framed Size: 15 x 17 On June 14, 2025, protests against a wannabe king took place all over the country. Leaving the protest, as we crossed the street, I took a photo of the characters in this image. It seemed quite emblematic of the time we are in now, when liberty is at stake. A woman dressed as the Statue of Liberty and was crossing simultaneously with a woman holding a "No Kings" placard and a woman in an abaya covering, with a small boy. There were others, so I included a gentleman to round it out. The photo, for me, was not enough, nor was the watercolor painting I made from it. I had to challenge myself, and this print is one of the two best from a very difficult registration process. I felt it worth pursuing as a moment in history and culture. The crosswalk is a good symbol- representing what we are crossing from and where we are going. The characters are many, and all worthy of liberty. The crosswalk may also represent following the rules for our own safety. Freedom does have its boundaries. This is a tribute to the US Constitution and its basic premises, that we can all walk here as long as we are following the rules.

Risk Ahead collage with acrylic on Bristol board 13 x 10 framed size: 20 x 16 Alice Andrews Higbee Mathis (1695 – 1784), widow, became the wife of John “The Great Mathis”, a land developer in Little Egg Harbor, New Jersey in 1716. A Quaker of the Tuckerton area, she is recorded as being dark-haired and dark-complexed, strong-minded, possessing unusual business talents, and was reportedly a greater land speculator than her husband. She was fairly educated and wrote a good hand. In this mixed-media monotype, she is surrounded by the colors of war – the stripes of the flag of the colonies, the blood of the families, her hands the color of lost soldiers, her face the determined life force of the Revolution. John and Alice loaned money to the struggle for freedom and were repaid in Continental paper, which proved worthless. They rallied and continued to prosper, leaving a legacy of freedom and lands to their heirs. She was my 6th great-grandmother, and this likeness is based on a mid 1800s tintype of her great-great-granddaughter Martha Mathis, my 2nd great -grandmother.

Spring Vibe acrylic and charcoal on canvas 20 x 16 With a strong background in Natural History and Botany, I am very much drawn to abstracting from nature both on a gross and cellular level. I have a fascination with the structures, forms, and colours of stems, leaves, flowers, roots, and fruiting bodies of the plants I know so well. The twisted and intertwined organic nature of gardens and natural places is where I gather much of my inspiration these days. I am fascinated with abstracting from both the living and dead forms of plants, and I am just as happy painting neglected flower beds with all the weeds and rotting wood and fungi as I am a manicured garden. Strong brushstrokes, colour, and texture are key elements to most of my works. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Alice Paul: The Right to Be Counted oil on canvas 18 x 14 This painting honors Alice Paul, a visionary suffragette whose quiet determination helped reshape the American promise. As a principal architect of the 19th Amendment, Paul devoted her life to the radical belief that democracy must include women—not as an afterthought, but as equals. Positioned before the U.S. Capitol and framed by the American flag, Alice Paul stands not in the shadows of history, but in its full light. The ballot being cast beside her is both an action and an echo—a gesture that carries the weight of decades of protest, imprisonment, hunger strikes, and unwavering resolve. It represents a right not bestowed, but claimed. Rather than portraying Paul as a distant historical icon, this work seeks to capture her humanity: her composure, her resolve, and her faith in a future she knew she might never fully see. The monumental structure behind her contrast with her calm presence, underscoring a central truth of American progress—that lasting change often begins with individuals willing to stand, persist, and endure. Created to mark the nation’s 250th anniversary, this painting invites reflection on the unfinished nature of American freedom. Alice Paul’s legacy reminds us that the ideals enshrined at the country’s founding were expanded not through ease or consensus, but through courage. Her story asks us to consider whose voices have shaped the nation, whose were silenced, and how the act of participation itself remains both a right and a responsibility.

Ode to Untamed Women oil 24 x 24 Using Women's Suffrage sheet music in the National Archives and the colors of the movement (yellow, purple, white), this piece brings the past struggles and present challenges together with words and imagery. The sepia yellow sashes are filled with the chants and songs of the past, while the central bright yellow sash is inscribed with all of the worst thoughts and statements made about women today. The lighted focal box contains a simple message supported by the actions of the past: You Will Not Break Us, We Will Prevail. This lighted box includes a white extension cord and must be plugged in to light. Dandelions represent grit, perseverance, and finding ways to grow and survive even in the most unfavorable environments. Women of today can take hope and inspiration from our foremothers, despite all of the vile anti-feminist ideas bombarding us today. We will prevail.

Women Voting digital 13 x 18 framed size: 14.25 x 19.25 My own grandmother was born in 1912, before women in America were allowed to vote. I based this artwork on a historic 1912 American Press Association photograph that is now in the public domain, of a suffrage parade in New York City. I am inspired that public demonstrations such as this one were an effective part of the broad picture in securing women’s right to vote, as well as the fact that the baby pictured in this image is of a similar age as my own grandmother. I don’t take for granted the hard-won rights women have gained just within a few generations, and realize the efforts continue to this day. This image celebrates the many women who fought to win the right to vote. My creative process utilized mixed media including digital media, pen and ink, and digital printing on watercolor paper, as I made intuitive decisions about distortion, visual closure, white space, pattern, and line. I grew up through and beyond the digital revolution, and am comfortable using digital media in the same manner one might use a graphite pencil or a paintbrush – it is just another tool for artmaking, in my opinion.

Woven in Sunshine acrylic on canvas 24 x 18 I am a NYer who has lived in the greater Charleston, SC area for almost eight years. While living here, I have come to know and be inspired by the living history and culture of the Gullah Geechee people and their extraordinary skills in sweetgrass basketweaving, a skill brought from Africa and highly valued and collected to this day. I wanted to honor their joy in the process and the art they share with us. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
