Just adding some images of work left from the NYC show. When the art work actually returns I can get a few more posted that I didn't photograph , yet. Thanks for looking.

this painting is older but i have worked and worked on it. It has probably 200 butterflies cut from vellum collage with patterned paper. It is 28x28 and 2" deep. I have never been in a swarm of butterflies but i can imagine it is amazing and fluttery

I have been pursuing my passion for sculpture lately.. I love creating my paintings in three dimension. A couple of these are clay in the beginning stages before firing. The last one of the girl standing is clay with plaster and wood glue. It is very quick to work with... I don't have to worrrrrry about the piece being in the kiln and exploding and I can finish with any paint or pigment and even collage or color pencil. YAY!

ok before I do on about my art I have to tell you I went on a 550 mile bike ride across Iowa in July. Georgia has nothing on the humidity in Iowa... but it was the most fun I had all summer, almost. I tell you about that later for now back to the art.

The first giraffe is blind folded and the second giraffe is following/trusting with her heart on a necklace, exposed ... ever been there? Why is it that we don't trust ourselves sometimes and will go along with anyone who acts like they know what they are doing?

I just realized I last posted exactly this day one year ago... weird. I am hoping to attempt to start blogging again, although my last attempt was pretty weak. For now I am updating my blog with images that are not on my web site. Let me know what you think.

This is the first painting in a series that I have been thinking about for awhile...

This painting is "the wish". A kitty girl who wishes for things that are out of the realm of her reality, or are they?

It is acrylic on a panel with resin. This piece is small but I am working up to larger images which I will post soon...
