Transformation: This work is coming to terms with growing old. It is about discovering and uncovering our riches as we live life fully. I intend the surfaces to convey aspects of beauty in how things age. Color fades and softens, lines blur. A certain amount of rounding occurs as proportions shift and reposition and new configurations are incorporated as part of the life process. The work is a statement about living. Birth, love, fertility, aging and romance are affirmed. I work with hand rubbed powder pigment mixed with gouache, lightly misting the paper and applying layer upon layer of powder pigment and paint until my final image appears.
