Faces
These projects work to convey the emotions involved in living. Each of us experience life differently but can also exxperience it through the faces and emotions of others. We empathize and sympathize with others which connects us as humans.

Members of the animal kingdom are facinating because their differences are so vast. Living in a great variety of environments from ocean to air, they possess different attributes and have roles to play. The may be a predator in one situation or the prey in another. Their shapes, form and colors vary from each animal making each unique and a challenge to capture.
Images of people convey the complicated life of thoughts that are individual but bring us together as people who strive to understand others of different backgrounds and experiences. We can never truly understand the experiences and feelings of others, but through my art I look to get the viewer to understand what another might think or believe. We all have the desire to be purposeful, fulfilled and happy in our individual lives but we should look to enrich our lives by listening to others and striving to understand other perspectives.
Boxes can take many forms, shapes and sizes and have many purposes. I have taken wooden boxes and transformed them with a variety of subjects. Most have come from recycled cigar boxes and become items of beauty.
Gardens are a place of wonder! The colors, shapes and scent of the flowers, animals and earth can capture the imagination or set it free especially after a brief Spring rain. The light in a garden can reveal things previuosly unseen if the observer is willing to stop and rest for a moment and let the garden in.
Miniatures have been a way for me to experiment with different processes and "find" images to bring out of these "experiments" to develop into finished pieces of art. Working in small scale, has given me permission to risk something new and then commit to the ideas and beauty found within each. Each miniature painting varies depending on my focus and thought process on a given day. This allows me to stretch and incorporate my own internal thoughts and feelings and hopefully connect to the viewer.
