I am a storyteller using lines, colors, and shapes to express aspects of the human condition. Throughout my studio career I have worked in a series format because I believe that all work done in a series is connected and related in concept and spirit.
In the painting series Voices from Far Lands, the goats represent sensuality, determination and vitality and the red-winged blackbirds describe freedom and playfulness. The humans evoke vulnerability, strength and endurance. The collage elements can perhaps be seen as thoughts that come unexpectedly into one’s mind.
