A celebration of the body in motion.
Joie de Vivre (2005) I remember as a very young child when I went to the beach for the first time. I squealed for joy for over an hour as I ran and splashed in the waves. Too often, as we grow older, we lose that "joie de vivre." I love the blue of the ocean, the blue of the sky, and the beauty of the female form; combining the three helped express the carefree joy of "letting loose." This is one of my favorites; it has a strong sense of texture, including thick clouds, and waves that are literally cut into the paint. Original: Contact Artist |
A Meditation on Transcending Duality (2006) This piece reflects the merging of two artistic interests: Matisse's cut-outs and my fascination with bodies in motion, particularly female dancers. In 2009, it was displayed at Ico Gallery in New York as part of their "Rhythmic Figure" exhibit. Original: Contact Artist |

 Le Danse (2006) (18x24:Cut Paper and Acrylic) "Le Danse" is another merging of my interest in Matisse's use of cut paper and my love of dance/ bodies in motion. I created this pop art, poster-like image when my work was being displayed before a dance concert at Texas State University.

Sway (2006)
(16x 20: Pencil and Charcoal on canvas)
Part of the process of discovering the line and form is via sketching. This was the sketch that launched the line of cut-outs on the "Sway" motif.
