I know I’ll paint over this because I can’t afford to waste a big (36x48) canvas on a subject no one wants to buy, but had to express something like political commentary in this hellscape we’re enduring. The distractions! I will enjoy taking the anger in this piece and transforming it.
“High Anxiety”, 10x16 acrylic on heavy 12x18 inch paper. 2019 maybe? I found this in a stack of paper pieces today. Did this during the first incompetent term while we were battling Covid and hate mongering and general stupidity. Who could have imagined it could get so much worse!?! #impeach #remove

“Quest”, 40x30 acrylic and collage on canvas. It lifted me up and threw me down and I despaired and then waded in for one last go.

“Summer Storm”, 48x48 inches acrylic and collage on canvas. Getting there I think. What a fantastic feeling to stretch out your arms to fill the void, use a step stool to touch the sky of your piece. Such a joy to return to larger works. Echoes my own expansion perhaps?
“Beneath the Seven Sisters”, 40x40 acrylic and collage on canvas. The struggle was so satisfying. Final battle and surrender this morning. . #womensart, #figurativeart, #contemporaryart, #blueskyart
“Seeking”, 40x40 inch acrylic and collage. on canvas. I am absolutely having a ball with these larger abstracts. I feel like I’ve come home. This one is based on Demeter’s grief and search for Persephone.
What I’m working on: Untitled, 40x40 inches, acrylic and collage on canvas. For me, abstract painting is like writing poetry, and just as challenging in a thrilling way to see what will emerge from nothing.
“What Rough Beast”, 12x12 inches acrylic and collage . “And what rough beast, it’s hour come at last, slouches toward Bethlehem to be born.” William Butler Yeats wrote “The Second Coming” in 1919 following the horrors of World War I. #womensart, #figurativeart, #contemporaryart, #blueskyart
