ice queen Painting

born: Detroit, Michigan USA my interest is in memory and how, over time, memories are changed or altered so a different memory/image exists while the essence of the original remains. using images that signify a particular time or place, the paintings are layered and surfaces are manipulated. lines or shapes are blocked in so that their abstractions become both voids and presences and an ambiguity of space is created with the shift in point of focus. the pieces are mementos that tell layered stories.
