From the artist:

I make art about our emotional lives—feelings that cross demographic borders and touch experiences that we all share. I am naturally inclined to communicate about burdens, disappointments, and heartaches. At other times I like to take jabs at social injustices and worldwide political delusions. Often the work is powerful and it may not go with your couch!

And even I need comic relief. Sometimes I will paint something fun that has a humorous slant on human conditions or icons. Also I like painting contemporary portrayals of animals and birds----especially crows and ravens as they have been important in my family mythology for generations.

My style is contemporary and expressionistic. I usually paint with high quality acrylics as I like to work quickly. Sometimes I attach objects or other art materials to my work. I also like printing monotypes as they are free in style and basically another form of painting. I have also experimented with other mediums, including encaustics and installation art.

Sometimes I think that doing art has saved my life.
