Maya Angelou, best known for her strikingly candid poetry and autobiographical accounts, also excelled in many other creative endeavors. Her first published work “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings”, brought sexual assault into the national conversation by discussing her own experience with the trauma of rape. “Do You Know Her?” is a series of portraits celebrating women who have made significant contributions to our world. Too often women’s accomplishments are not celebrated, and their stories are not heard. These artworks are a reminder not to forget. Knowing those who have come before us can help us believe that our desires are possible. Every piece is an assembly of virtual and physical layers of drawings and paintings. Surprising transformations of the image occur during the process of translating pencil or paint on paper to digital medium.

I am an American artist, designer and teacher based in Rome Italy. In my view, a portrait should tell the story of a person without words. Each face and expression are unique, and I love drawing and painting them. The women I paint are inspiring, and I am working to bring attention to them and their accomplishments with art. The selection of the people to portray is part of the creative process of the work. Sometimes chance plays a role in the choice of who to include, while at other times events happening in the real world are the driver. Familiarity can also be a factor, as a child I was lucky enough to meet Gertrude Ederle, and I lived a block away from Louise Nevelson, so they are included. Every piece is an assembly of virtual and physical layers of drawings and paintings. Surprising transformations of the image occur during the process of translating pencil or paint on paper to digital medium. Working back and forth between the physical and the virtual, I arrive at an image made of many layers, and produce many variations before I choose one to be the final piece. This process makes it possible for traditional techniques and digital media to come together and the “one” is made of the “many.”
