My husband Jim and I are staying home these days, its not a difficult thing for us as we’re both artists working from home, but somehow this feels different. I’ve been looking at work to be simple, simple, not complicated or busy right now. Somehow this feels soothing during this time!

I’ve recycled a few older canvases, and am re-painting them with a new energy and new ideas. Lots of experimental painting is happening for me, using tools and “printmaking” process concepts that create marks and uncover under-layers of color and textures. I’m exploring my need for peaceful artwork and calmer palettes, bringing white back to the forefront to capture space and clean images. My mantra is to create clean, developed, and sophisticated work. Textures seem really interesting to me right now too! Lots of energy and motion to pull from, to create a “start” using texture instead of my usual vibrant color choices, that’s what’s happening here in my Studio these days!!! Stay Safe!
