ART IS LIFE

My work coincides with the seasons here in upstate New York. It reflects the duality of my vision. The light transparency of water media plus collage is balanced with the strength, weight and grounding of materials such as bluestone and wood.
A line of energy flows through subjects: plants, trees, people, flowers, rock - forming a physical connection seen and unseen. Nature and our relationship with all species is a constant source of peace and inspiration.
words about my work
Memories, images and words, like the irregular rocks within these cairns, are stored inside me. I would not be who I am without the pieces of my jagged history.
