About The Artwork

The imagery in my current work reflects the seascapes of my childhood, with weather often on the cusp of change. The striped, peaked tents evoke an especially vivid dream, but do actually exist on Chappaquiddick Island, Martha’s Vineyard. These landscapes are the settings for a series of figurative paintings that explore the mysteries of adolescence — and probe the memories of my own youth, as well. The light turquoise of the hand-forged tete-a-tete bench, the book cover and the sky give this painting its luminosity. The model's platinum hair, stripes and extensive tattoos lend a "disco" accent to the salt marsh setting. "Beach and Disco" (which is also the title of her book) is an oil painting on linen canvas.
