ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I think of all my work as "remnants and residents of a lost sanctuary of Aphrodite". In the series involving ancient artifacts, I am interested in form, with line and colour playing enhancing roles. There may be no piece of material culture closer to humans than the small vessel. Vessels reflect our entire culture, our values and aesthetics. The variation in their forms is captivating. I doubt i will ever lose this fascination with drawing and painting them. The image develops through many transparent layers of oil color.

The motives underlying all my paintings are both current and timeless: our common need for sustenance, beauty, and grace. Humans have not changed dramatically since we first appeared and I look for threads of continuity, aiming to make imagery that’s rooted in the mythic, the mystic, and the cycles of Nature. Paintings of vessels, birds, plant life, and human figures are cast as aspects of an elusive yet inviting sanctuary. Frequently the images are rooted in the remnants of ancient cultures, both tangible and oral, but they are always responding to our current world as well. Concurrent with my professional art practice, soon after completing a dual major in fine art and philosophy, I was also an organic farmer from 1988-2017 largely occupied with goats and with effecting alchemical transformations of milk and plants. Those decades of raw, ever-precarious, thoughtful farm experience resonate throughout the artwork, testifying to the cycles & perils of life for all sentient beings, humans included.
