The human form is the source of my inspiration; it is a subject that proves inexhaustible as well as dynamic. I never seem to lose interest in human anatomy, individual expression and complexity of spirit.The women of Kentucky that cross my path -all ethnicities, and socio economic levels, both young and old, form my artistic statement.
In my drawings and paintings I record their lives, capturing moments, revealing character, expressing physical and spiritual beauty. Their hands and face tell their stories, their eyes speak from the canvas and the lines in their skin reveal their journeys.
I often choose large scale compositions and create mega size portraits to allow maximum opportunities for detail, color and brushstrokes. My sketches and paintings are often strong in contrast and emphasize strength in character.
Beyond my artistic endeavor, is my desire to elevate each woman’s value; to create awareness and to promote the position of women with a visual expression of their spirit.
My new work and new series, Dreams of my Daughter, focuses on a visual interpretation of my daughter’s graphic descriptions of lucid dreams. The series incorporates two elements; (1) voyeuristic views during her dream states with subconscious images materializing into reality and (2) images of her experiencing the sensations of common dreams. The paintings are large scale with realistic life-size figures and rich color schemes.
