Returning to my art after many years, I and my then two year old daughter, the faithful crayola, and the Dutch oil crayon, a multi-colored oil putty stick of green-gold, cerulean, violates, and hues of red swirled in and around its core, and from there came — the Tendril Series.   During the winter of 1996 I enrolled in a desktop publishing program at Sacramento Business Skills Center. Combining Photoshop filters with her figure drawings, I created the poster series Celebrating the Absurd.   I’ve been seen in ART news special Issue1995 (Summer Edition) featuring Gypsy (from CIBA chrome from the nude compilation Embrace the Medusa Collection). In the November 1995 issue, Serenity, and in the January 1996 issue Zeitgeist-the-Spirit of the Times – was advertised. I have also shown at several local galleries.   During the early nineties, I completed a course “Writing for Children and Teenagers”, from The Institute for Children’s Literature. During the course of time, I wrote the tales for the Bedtime Stories Collection.   My earlier works are the Subtle Changes Series are digital prints on canvas and/or vinyl. These earlier drawings, done using crayola, gouache, and oil stick on paper, were scanned then rearranged through cut away and layering techniques similar to Japanese paper-cut art usually called kirie (kiri-e = cut-pictures) , and sent to into a myriad of wave patterns, or set apart again with light and shadow.  These simple drawings transformed into intriguing new forms that cause the  eyes to dance.     Most recently I’ve created a group called Mass where large swaths of color swim comingle in midair to wake the senses. Enjoy!
