Vision: Things That Fly
2010-2011

Large scale watercolors
Site-specific installation
Architecture and Light
Mobiles
Fantastical 
Otherworldly

As the viewer entered from the urban street level of Cincinnati, Ohio into the Weston Art Gallery they were enveloped by an otherworldly scene punctuated by floating forms, many with wing-like features. This project was funded by an Artist Enrichment Grant from Kentucky Foundation for Women.



Nam semper semper ex
In porttitor pellentesque sapien




Artist Statement
My work employs translucent materials such as watercolor, layered tracing paper and wax to evoke the atmospheric qualities of light. It often explores my interests in contemplative spaces and interpersonal relationships.

Layering materials both conceals and reveals forms, suggesting dimension and history.  

Small works often lead me to make larger installations or sculptures, but I continually return to the two-dimensional surface.
