The Virtues, 2019-2021, Mixed Media works on paper, 11” x 15” ( collage, ink, pencil, watercolor, gouache and acrylic paint and rice papers)

I see the figure as a barometer of this moment and its physical contortions as a reaction to the irrational and fluctuating temperature of our situation. Existing within the “garden", a place of biomorphic forms and fluids, requires virtuous balance, patience, acquiescence, hope, positivity, humor, and basic survival “snacks” , such as air and water, to endure challenging periods in our history.
