I work primarily with acrylic paint on wood panels and canvas. Sometimes my paintings are completely abstract. I also use abstract realism, with elements of landscape, buildings, and nature, but none of my work relates in any direct way to places or objects in the outside world. Instead, each painting is a conversation with myself and my inner world using paint and surface as the language. | I was a tapestry weaver in my 20’s and started writing songs in my 40’s. I performed as a singer/songwriter in the Valley for many years but brought my focus back to painting during the pandemic. Painting is an integral part of my inner journey, and an embodiment of things loved, forgotten and longed for. It is where I allow myself to be vulnerable and honest, and uniquely myself. |
