Statement
For decades I’ve been inspired by non-representational art, often incorporating
Found materials, metal leaf and other mixed media to capture light, and movement
on canvas. Dating back over thirty years, my work has been a constantly
moving target, developing and shifting as I’ve moved around the country, started
a family and experienced moments in my life which have impacted me both as a
woman and a painter.
My most recent series strips all of that away and gets back to my artistic roots,
unprimed canvas that allows the paint to speak for itself. Inspired by the end of
Autumn and the coming of Stick Season in Northern New England, this series is
as stark as it is vibrant; this work is about the boldness or delicacy of brush stroke
in combination with compositional balance using Payne’s Grey and IndianYellow
as pivotal colors.
My work has been shown across the United States and throughout Europe.
