"I am an interdisciplinary artist. My daily practice as an artist is transformative, meditative, reflective and centering. Drawing and painting are second nature to my practice, but I investigate how my artist voice will best speak. I create traditional and non-traditional oil paintings, artist's’ books, poetry, short stories, ceramic sculpture, drawings, prints and digital work. My artwork intersects the intensely personal, public and political spheres."

This Week In the Studio May 8, 2008

Alas, my opening for “Seeking Stories” is tomorrow evening at Cerulean! I am exhausted but am looking forward to an evening of friends, wine, and good cheer. It will also be the first time my husband Stan will be able to attend the opening without tending to our toddler daughter. That will be nice. Tomorrow marks another semester of teaching at UMA completed (still have some grading to do though). I can breathe a little deeper now.

It has been a busy week preparing for the show but not without concern for what is next. I have an upcoming deadline for the black frame show, and I will probably do some collage and acrylic pieces for a number of reasons. Time – I have under three weeks to make five ten by tens and expectations – I have participated in this show for a number of years and these pieces have come to be what I am “branded” with. That is okay. However, I would like to give myself a break from my mixed media pieces and just paint without a lot of concern for serious content. Perhaps the landscape of Tuscany, Italy where we travel to for two weeks in June. I am sure that will be refreshing and inspiring.

I have sitting in my shed at home an antique tricycle with attached wagon that is waiting for some life. We’ll see.
