My work has been exhibited widely in galleries and universities throughout the United Statesand also has been shown in Europe, Mexico and New Zealand
My work has been recognized with numerous awards and can be found in many private collections as well as in the collections of the
Noyes Museum and Johnson & Johnson Corporation.
I work in layers, technically, intellectually and spiritually to create images and sensations of movement, color, harmony and joy. Much of my work is inspired by the various materials I have collected, as well as by traditional materials in my studio. Combining things with a former life with new materials is a wonderful challenge.
My creative process is intuitive – starting with materials and/or marks that I make – with no preconceived plan. I like putting things together – sometimes pieces that seem not to go together. My work encompasses a variety of mediums – oil, acrylic, water, prints, found papers and objects, image transfer and encaustic. In each artwork there may be one medium, two or many media combined in one piece. Inspiration comes from the inside – based on my personal distillation of the external world.
