COUPLES I; 2017; Oil on canvas; 46X52" Sold. Couples series
The inspiration for this series is climate change and concern for the environment, which is ever present. Do you sometimes wonder how plants and animals will adapt over time? I try to imagine how some plant and animal species will prove resilient and find ways to evolve....even thrive? What will they look like? How will our homes and ways of living change?
I have a great cast of characters in my family! Don't we all? At any given time, each of us are quirky, kind, difficult, unique and wonderful. We make our way through life as best we can. Sometimes we laugh at each other, make each other mad, and occasionally find success helping each other. These works celebrate our humanity, with all of its glorious imperfection.
We are living in extremely anxious times with social polarization, the Ukraine war, the recent pandemic, and rapidly rising living costs. It is emotionally exhausting. In response, I find myself making more of an effort to focus on peace, kindness and appreciation of the people in my life. The work in this series celebrates the gift of relationships.

An Oral History. 2021; 12" x 56"; Water Media with gilding on paper. $1800
Sections from 3 totem paintings, An Oral History, Thinking and Voiceless. 2021. Exploring aspects of communication.
Having studied communications, I find the ways that people share thoughts, feelings and information to be a very deep and complex social exchange. In the Chatter Box paintings, I offer perspective on the minefield of discourse we traverse when sending and receiving messages with each other. Some pieces address the passing down of cultural histories through generations, our feelings and beliefs about the medical field, how we can feel voiceless and unseen, complexities of social and political discourse, and ways we may argue. The playful illustrative nature of the artwork helps to keep the topics approachable and makes it easier to see ourselves reflected in these imperfect interactions.
