This medium is extremely reactive and so presents huge challenges when attempting to ‘control’ it. It pretty much does as it pleases and when you try to duplicate something you just did 10 seconds previous you find yourself either making an entirely different effect or messing up the first thing you laid down! This one evokes an entry point into some imagined cosmos through that blood red orb! Intense? Troublesome? Evocative? I hope you like it and thanks for looking!

I've been painting since I was nine years old when my mother put a brush in my hand and said, "This is how you do it." I must have been a good listener. My career as a a painter has come in waves, however. It has taken me a lifetime, but I am now a full-time painter. A few years ago I challenged myself to do a painting a day; hence, the eye paintings. I recently lost my husband of 47 years. As part of my bereavement, I visited my artist/sister, KC Pollak, in Colorado. We spent nearly all day for 10 days in her art cabin making alcohol ink paintings. What a joyful, healing time! And I found a new love and passion. Now I live my work and love my life even more.
