My mixed media drawings and paintings look to the natural world for inspiration. I take elements and symbols and utilize them to create abstract narratives. Relationships, emotions, memories, dreams, and celebrations of the beautiful, all figure into my work.
I refer to my approach as “Symbolic Nature”. I utilize acrylics, pastels, charcoal, ink, found and manipulated papers, incised wood, and collage. Pretty much any and all materials are used until the piece punctuates my psyche.
