ABOUT THE ARTWORK

At the end of 2021 I set a new goal for 2022 to enter an original painting each month in the San Diego Watercolor Society art shows. Little did I know the January entry deadline was in two days. The title for the January show was "Purple is the new black." I sat at my desk job wondering what I could accomplish. My answer was right in front of me. I photographed my coffee mug for studio painting. It's a shiny little black cauldron mug with three tiny legs. I love the way the steam fogs and clears on the narrow lip and how the round sides warm my hands during the long pandemic nursing shifts. Families in crisis called every two or three minutes my whole shift every shift for months that long winter. Coughing and wheezing and the hospital was full. This mug got us through it. Magic.

I love the texture of water colors and oils. It’s worth the sleep deprivation. My good dreams are about brush strokes and paint drips and the smell of pencil shavings. I long for it. I waited so many years for a good time to paint until one day last summer I realized now is all we might have. I am coping by contrasting the composition of my focus to include and highlight the beautiful little bright spots around us. The opposite of a trigger is a glimmer; it’s when something catches your eye like the light sparkling through your glass or the way a shadow works, or the smile on someone’s face. Several private collectors across the USA already enjoy my paintings, prints, and fiber arts. I am sharing my explorations with the public by building a community of artists on social media and in my hometown of San Diego, California. I love emboldening new artists. I believe art is good for you, and that making art is the best way to appreciate our lives. There is no bad art. I love color and texture and want to share this feeling with as many folks as I can, while I can. Painting these beautiful little moments to share with you is how I want to spend our time here.
