At this very moment, Time's up and #metoo movements are strengthening universally as women are using their voices and gatherings to keep the momentum growing.

Through the ages women have been able to perform and succeed at tasks once only assigned to men. As muses, goddesses nurturers, martyrs, queens, mythmakers storytellers, and mothers able to bring forth new life women are still marginalized and often silenced. The gender gap is real.

These collages shine a light on this moment in time. Infused with metaphor and symbols, these artworks explore currently relevant issues that seek recognition and resolution.

Layering and combining antique books and music pages, handmade papers, rubbings, stampings, colored pencils, interference paints, magazine catalogues, postage stamps, and paper cutouts, I am able to construct a narrative that defines the current moment.

Watermedia provides me with an unlimited ability to express myself as an artist.  An Aura of energy consumes me as I slowly metamorphose the pristine surface into a nebulous beginning; I enjoy watching my artwork evolve from many successive applications of watercolor.

Excited by the total unpredictability of each new image that appears, I find myself enchanted with new possibilities and surprises. My own forms and symbols pattern and lace themselves between the layered veils of transparent color.

Combining my own photographic elements, found objects and papers, I layer images both on the computer screen and on the 2 dimensional picture plane. I then scan images and elements manipulating their size, shape, color and opacity, layering them within.

Often my own real butterflies, leaves, ancient writings or pieces of watercolor paintings add dimension and depth to the imagery that evolves.

Using these elements repetitively, a unique image evolves revealing the interconnectedness of time and space.

PIECES OF DREAMS

My collages are Pieces of Dreams exploring memory, metaphor and archetypes that transcend time, and space. 

The layering of imagery utilizing tactile and technical materials and techniques allows for unique serendipitous compositions whose elements come together, uniting often disparate worlds into new relationships - compositions and artworks that reveal the interconnectedness of nature, life, spirit and time.

My process combined watercolors, computer images, gouache, acrylic, collage, colored pencils, metallic, antique sheet music, postage stamps, metallic fabrics, Chinese paper cuts.

Each day I discover so many images waiting for me to immortalize, to savor and share with others.

Photography freezes a moment in time and allows me to revisit the magic, beauty and essence of each treasured memory.

In this amazing age of technology, I am able to immediately capture the images that make me stop, look and listen to the universe that surrounds us.

My process of layering images culled from thousands of my photos, painted artworks and collages are the starting points for ideas and compositions--visual stimulation for the eye and mind to see new patterns, new connections.

The resultant works are serendipitous compositions whose elements come together, uniting often disparate worlds into new relationships ~ compositions and artworks that reveal the interconnectedness of nature, life, spirit and time.

I have created artwork on copper, clay, glass, paper, fabric, using fire, brass, beading, sandpaper, sewing, folding, painting, embossing, laminating, gold leafing, encaustic, photography and numerous other experimental art forms.

Combining any new idea and unknown mixture of media is always an amazing beginning for an unpredictable artwork.

I am always open to trying a cutting edge method ot create the unexpected.

Creating artwork that one can wear on clothing or everyday usable objects is an awesome way to enjoy art.

I am fascinated by the transition of my paintings, collages, photographs and mixed-media artwork onto fabrics, plastic phone cases, dresses, tops, leggings and other household items.
