Painting
With abstract painting I’m interested in a process which operates within a personal narrative in concert with the unexpected. I paint, remove paint and repaint striving to bring forward forms, strokes and colors that singularly are incomplete but adjoined constitute a truth about their incongruity. Each painting has its own individualism.
Mixed Media/Collage
My mixed media work and collage drawings are inspired by female wrestlers. Over time the ‘girl wrestlers’ works have evolved from research and working with mid-century imagery combined with the analog collage process. The term ‘girl wrestling’ evokes a perceived yet subtle anxiety about women in general that has manifested from the woman’s suffrage movement through today. I am interested in examining this anxiety.
