About The Artwork
When I painted this gorgeous 4 foot by 4 foot painting last year, I titled it "Our Resilient Earth"...IN MY MIND. But when I exhibited the painting, I mistakenly put the title down as "Our Fragile Earth." Oops. (I had been thinking a lot about fragility being the other side of the coin to resilience at the time ). As an artist, I follow the rule of thumb that says once a painting is named, you don't change it. So I decided not to change it for the exhibit. But over the past few months, the more I've thought about it the more I've wished I'd included resilience in the title. There's an optimism about thinking of our Earth as resilient. It means perhaps we can undo the damage and do more to care for our shared Home. So that's when I decided to break the rules and change the title. So on Earth Day 2020 I officially renamed it "Our Fragile/Resilient Earth." This planet is both fragile AND resilient. Every day each of us can make choices that increase our Earth's resilience. Not letting the water run when we wash our hands for 20 seconds. Changing our lawns to sustainable native plants. Joining our local @buynothingproject. Reducing, reusing, recycling. So I changed the name to highlight the choices we have. The power we each have to make a difference. "Our Fragile/Resilient Earth" is a 48"x48" acrylic painting and is available to add to your art collection.

Would you love some Joy? Well, you've come to the right place. My paintings have been anecdotally proven to bring Joy. Whether you choose paintings abundant with bright, vibrant colors or imbued with a calming, soft gathering of neutrals, your adding my art to your life will bring you Joy. Joy is essential to feeling balanced and restoring, especially in difficult times. I've spent the past four years learning more about the positive impact of joy and playing with how to bring that to my art. Joy brings hope and optimism, for me and for my collectors. I delve deeply into why Joy matters; how it is different from happiness; why we not only need it, but we all **deserve** it. My paintings bring positive energy wherever they are displayed. My paintings have exhibited in solo and group shows in Seattle, Virginia, Maryland, Nashville, North Carolina, and Washington DC, including at the Phillips Collection. My works are held in private collections in Seattle, New York, London, Washington DC, Virginia, California, and around the world. Born in London, England, my parents and I emigrated to the States when I was two. I hold an MFA in Visual Arts at the Vermont College of Fine Arts, an MA from The George Washington University, and a BA from Davidson College. I am married to a retired U.S. Marine, Tom, and we live in Seattle with our beloved Golden Chow, Mory, aka Studio Dog.
