a work in progress

I had to prepare for the publicity materials for the Eureka Springs Artist Studio Tour and thought I’d share them here. These are the photos and the info which will be published in the directory for the tour. The Studio Tour will be happening at the end of September again this year and I will be sure to post again as the event nears.

Background:

I have lived in Eureka Springs for 7 lucky years.

Work/Media

I have always been interested in discovering other perspectives and finding the common threads among people. I enjoy working with the universality of form and color. I create paintings in acrylic which serve as meditations on abundance or, as I prefer, plenty.

Artist Statement

I paint small moments and everyday objects as totems of beauty and gratitude.

I paint big eyed girls to arouse ideas about the power of child-like wonder.

My work is inspired by child’s play and science, by Wonderland and rabbit holes, by cartoons, graphic arts, and funk, by the interplay of colors, the seduction of a curve, and by the awesome experience of being part of the natural world.
