About The Artwork
Maybe I’m dating myself, but does anyone remember that iconic 1967 hit from the British band Procol Harum, A Whiter Shade of Pale? I was listening to that moody, evocative song as I began this painting, and I felt nostalgic and full of memories of drunken seductions of my youth, and the “skipping of the light fandango” the song refers to, (a metaphor for a lively, flamboyant event) of which I had many. I picked up my paintbrush and although I rarely start a painting with pale colors, the whites, pinks, and the creamy parchment seemed to fit my mood. There is a balance and a sense of movement in the painting that exudes calm and simplicity. Any reflection may arise from the calm colors; the black timeline running through the painting, just off-center is the defining detail. The painting sits in a poplar floating frame, which is simple and timeless. A favorite piece of mine.

United States
The source of my creativity has been ever present during my entire life, an unstoppable energy and imagination that were used throughout my student days, and subsequent careers and always appeared through my approach to projects, problem-solving, and a long career working with books, literacy, and social justice in our prisons. I explored dark and light contrasts in art during the pandemic when my beloved work shut down and I found that painting in a crowded corner of unused space with a cheap, wobbly easel began to reignite my missing pieces. Through persistence, and by submerging myself in learning ways with color, balance, and movement of paint on the canvas, the self-doubt has quieted, and memories and the subconscious fuel my work. I want my work to excite, comfort, and be an enduring source of delight.
