From the Artist:
"I have recently delved back into the art world as a new citizen of Columbus. My work touches on themes of the supernatural, or irreverent pop art, or altered landscapes, depending on my mood at any given time! I have a small series of each style. My current series is based on the Peter Gabriel song '14 Black Paintings.'
“I am a baby artist at the start of my golden years, attempting to find meaning in a world that has become almost incomprehensible to me. With age comes a more acute awareness of mortality, my own and that of places and things, so I strive to capture the things I find beautiful, or quirky, or disturbing by wrangling them into something two dimensional, and those usually have something or other to do with death. I have also been a professional makeup artist for 40 years and am extremely interested in faces so that always seems to find its way in. So enjoy the present moment, have the dessert, and savor the glass of ale. If you ever want an interesting collage that involves your face and all the things you love or find interesting, I’m your girl. Get in touch."
