In this expressive, figurative 9" x 12" oil painting a dramatic sense of femininity is explored as a woman dressed in a white gown peers at herself in the mirror. Rich, dramatic colors capture a feeling of romantic elegance and pride as we witness the subjects evaluation of herself. Lavish textures in the room's details propose a sense of time and place that the imagination can wander into. The brilliant jewel-toned blue shadows and deep green walls are as opulent as she is. This painting was inspired by some imagery I found in a magazine and my own life experience of needing to look inside at vulnerabilities and wounds in order to heal. Painting, for me is and continues to be part of that journey.

ARTISTS STATEMENT: I observe, and participate in, the change of hues. I stand alone in a perspective—influenced by the roads and detours that I’ve chosen. The subjects I interpret on canvas dance with tradition, but underneath exists an individual search for freedom. As a creator, I’ve always been interested in working with color. I see my life as having a palette of its own and I seek to have the chroma of my experiences come through in my paintings. Over time, I’ve realized the only way to achieve this goal is to risk exposure—to unveil my simplified forms to the viewer. Whether the forms operate within the context of landscape or still life, the resulting narrative is always a story of merit, regardless of public perception or understanding. BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION: I was born in Vancouver, BC in 1958 and then moved to California which is where my parents originally met. I lived there until I was 6 when my family moved across the US to New Jersey for my father's work. I grew up in a creative family and pursued art in college only to leave it upon graduation, dabbling with it over the years that followed. In 2010 I returned to painting on a more committed basis. This was spawned by some significant life changes and painting became my respite. I still reside in New Jersey and as an artist I appreciate the proximity to both Philadelphia and New York City. I've been showing my work since 2011 and continue to do so.
