Artist Statement
Here is a sampling of my latest work . This past year I have discovered the intricate and exciting world of mixed media. I scour second hand shops and estate sales for everything from Victorian wall paper samples to 1950's "My Confession" womens' magazines to bring my paintings alive with a deeper message. Every painting tells a beautiful yet sometimes poignant story of issues that keep coming up for women through the ages. From a feisty group of ladies storming the 'mens only' Bar, "Sazerac" in the Hotel Roosevelt, New Orlens in 1949 to my lovely friend Annette, "Mindful Warrior" who works everyday to achieve clarity and peice of mind these are the stories I must tell.
