WELCOME.
My art is about nature--what I feel is left of it-- and the potential of human nature to recover our loss. I express my concerns while being "in" the world and my contentment while being "with" the world. My art is autographical by nature through titles, statements and metaphoric reference.
I create both high and low art as one complete voice. For several years I have taken steps to return to my earlier roots as a self-represented independent artist. My focus is to transcend the pristine white walls and intercessor of a gallery in order to participate in ushering new ways. I live simply and in touch with a lovely chaos of a natural rhythm. Self Portrait, 24x18, acrylic on paper, 1981

OUR WORLD IS CHANGING AND SO MUST I

My installation, called "FOUND," exhibited at the Evanston Art Center in October was set in the future; a once flooded room that housed my journals from the years yet lived. This project has been inspirational in providing me with a few answers to shape my steps of what is to follow.

WORLD RIVERS CURTAIN

The World Rivers Curtain is over 100 ft long and growing. Check back to learn when the studio is open to the public this spring. Big hugs to Alice Vanhousen, Cathi Bouzide, Marjorie Woodruff, and Mel Theobald.

PROJECT / RED TREES: scroll

I completed my Red Trees Scroll in an edition of nine. Shroud fabric, linen, bamboo, a Mongolian button and ink, containing diagrams.

PROJECT / 100 TEARS: part 2

100 Tears; Part 2 show the disturbing traits of humanity carved in bronze is something to address and pass through to gain more understanding of our world. (Definations coming soon!)

WORKS ON PAPER

Last year I created 5 Buddha Works on Paper that represent stages (my interpretation) that many go through over and over: birth, challenge of absurdity, wisdom, death (return.) I did this as a form of permission so that my charcoal works can move to a rougher voice of protest. .
