As I mature my aim becomes clearer. It is to reconnect with the original source, that initial spark of creativity that leads to all manifestation. This journey is a dance on a knife’s edge; a staggering tightrope walk. Falling is inevitable, yet I continue, for this is the path of love held within my heart’s embrace.
Painting continues to be an expression of this ongoing pursuit. Myriad connections and possibilities present themselves at each moment … a cobblestone street that conceals a face, a cave that reveals a woman’s body, or a dream that intimates cosmic relationships. Engaging in each painting focuses this journey for me and provides a quiet unknowing that reveals new surprises, new connections, and a fullness of heart. I am awed by the creative energy that activates this life and indeed our whole universe. My paintings are my reaching for contact with this energy. In my work, the female form inevitably emerges as the image that most visibly represents universal creativity for me.
My wish remains that these works wake us to deepening questions that remind us of the miracle, mystery, and oneness of all.
