My latest paintings come from a lifetime of experiences. A deep well of sadness, loss, joy and discovery. A journey. My journey. From the crushing pain of losing friends and loved ones to AIDS in the 80s and 90s to the terror of pandemic lockdowns. From the delight of seeing a friend’s mural painted on our shared living space wall to the warmth and golden sunshine of South Beach. These experiences are reflected in my current work.

 

The colors and structure of each painting reflect a singular experience—a moment in time and place. All of the emotion and feeling of those moments is contained in the contrast of light and dark, in the geometry, in the forward motion.

 

I didn’t plan on having this much time for self-discovery and creating new work—it was an unanticipated consequence of the pandemic. But with more time to focus on my creative work, I have been able to tap into new places and ways of working. A gift of time. For reflection. For re-evaluating. For regeneration. For-reimagining. Time-for the meaning to become apparent.

 

Only in the doing—and in the reflection--does the meaning become clear.
