About The Artwork
Life is full of surprises. On the hottest morning of the summer, for example, you step outside onto the balcony to brush your hair. The minute your back has turned, your bed and clothing evaporate, a suitcase and a man’s jacket appear out of nowhere, and your home begins to fill up with snow. The word “palimpsest” refers to several layers below the surface of something, and it’s in this sense that I have used it as the title for this painting. Is the woman aware of the jacket and the suitcase in the room and the snow piling up? How will she react when (or if) she turns around? I know this woman well. Life does not faze her, snow and cold least of all. This image is also available as an archival (archival inks and paper) digital print.

United States
I paint oils and watercolors in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains in Northern California. The images in my paintings come from two worlds: Daylight—the life we experience when we are awake, and Nightlight—the lives we live when we are asleep. What I try to paint cannot be seen, so distinguishing between the two worlds is a matter of only minor importance.
