About The Artwork
A shadowed, awakening figure rises, recoiling from an intruding “cloud” of morning light. Like smoke or vapor, an effulgence diffuses in through her open window. Her exterior and interior surroundings take shape in response to obliterating illumination – only enough to deepen the mystery of her tiny bedroom and den, which probably yes definitely has hardwood floors and some random, empty (spooky) tables. This tableau is a large-format piece from 2008, my last year of art school. Scribbles about the progress of this work (eye-opening to look back on now) include thoughts about form and figure construction, the nature of light, and how to technically depict certain “fantastic” qualities of light. It was most certainly inspired by study of Edward Munch's "Madonna" of 1894 and statues of "Black Madonnas" I encountered in several catholic churches in my college exploration of southern France.

United States
Artist and registered nurse in Minneapolis, MN. Member artist @ Vine Arts Center. I mostly work in drawing, painting, collage and mixed media. My work is located at the intersections of several themes. Among them are the concepts of embodiment, transformation through nature and the environment, science, time, space, place and the creative process itself. I am fascinated by the translation of abstract concepts into meaningful figures and shapes, as well as reflecting experiences of the natural world. Additionally, I explore different styles and ways of working through various commissions.
