For the entire month of January my work will be on display at Caffe Ladro in Queen Anne. There will be lots of new additions and a great variety. Enjoy!
I'm back at Retrofit Home for the $100.00 and under sale. There will be lots of great pieces to choose from as I will be replenishing my stock as items are sold. Check it out any time between now and the end of February. This is a great opportunity.
Mixed media is my specialty, using everything from latex, acrylic, polyurethane, water, paper and even a dash of glitter to create a completed piece. My inspiration is garnered through my previous work and close connection with coffee. Similarly to how people look to the sky to find various objects hidden in the clouds, I look to the ripples in my coffee cup. The pictures I see are vivid. The foam adds texture, the flavoring adds color and in each natural wave or deliberate swirl, I see something new. My hope is that my paintings allow others to discover their own images. As I paint, not much is preplanned. My only intention is to paint the emotions I am experiencing from a song. Whether it is love, hate or something in between, these emotions can be measured in the layers of paint that contribute to the final product. My art is abstract but I believe that the emotions are clear and real to everyone. I like to think of my paintings as emotional impressions for observation.
