The Lady of Elche is a mysterious limestone bust of a Mythological Goddess dating back to 400 BC. She was unearthed at Elche (1897) in the Alacante region of Spain and has ever since been the celebrated symbol of Spain. In this monumental ink drawing, I attempted to depict the ephemeral beauty of The Lade of Elche by using raw materials to reflect the character of this ancient limestone sculpture with sumi-e ink (made from burnt tree bark soot), gesso, limestone powder and recycled paper were used to successfully capture the essence of her time-worn portrait.

My paintings and public art murals oscillate between the “refined and the raw”. Employing the use of color that evoke both naturalistic and non-naturalistic light, the grid informed structure loosely creates an unpredictable geometry. I have been successful in creating public art works that have evolved through the use of constructivism and figuration in order to employ specific narrative content. As a painter, I have found inspiration in the balanced geometry of ancient art as well as the inventiveness of primitive art and cubism. Continuously in search of authenticity, my works draw inspiration and ideas from these varied sources and are executed through an intuitive process that lead my work toward a painterly and modern abstraction. Originally from Oklahoma, I have lived and worked in both Boston and New York for twenty-two years during which time I earned a BFA in painting from The Boston Museum School of Fine Arts and Tufts University and have since been the recipient of numerous prestigious awards and fellowships. My visibility as an artist soared when I was featured at Boston’s Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA), The Museum of Fine Arts and Stux Gallery giving my work an introduction into the 1980’s cutting edge Boston art scene. Other galleries and museums such as The Danforth Museum, The Berkshire Museum, Provincetown Museum and Art Center, The Brockton Museum, Tufts University, The Art Institute of Boston, The Boston Museum School of Fine Arts, The University of Wisconsin, Wake Forest University, The University of Southern Maine, Richard Green Gallery N.Y., Mercer Street Gallery and SOHO Center for Visual Artists among many other galleries and exhibitions have contributed to my career as a painter. I have had work featured in Art in America, Art New England. The Boston Globe, The Boston Phoenix, Distinctly Oklahoma Magazine, Nichols Hills News, The Oklahoman, The Daily Oklahoman, The OK Gazette, WGBH Public Radio and numerous exhibitions and art publications.
