"CREATING HER INSPIRED STORY"

This new figurative painting was inspired by watching one of my students paint at Manito Gardens in Spokane ,Wa. I used a variety of water media including pouring watercolors, fluid acrylics and sumi ink. This painting is framed and measures 20 x 24, comes with a rag mat under plexi-glass and ready to enjoy hanging on your wall. 

 

 

Paintings from my Ghost Story Series

These paintings are the first chapters of my Ghost Story series.  I began  this collection in 2022. These two paintings were inspired by a trip to Natchez, MS where I was inspired by the beauty of one of the ante-bellum homes and a travelers "Stand" at this lovely southern town. ” These paintings epitomizes the perpetuity of time’.  A woman's experiences flow like water. Our adventures can be charted seen ebbing from the past and streaming towards the future. Tenaciously, I/we live and as we tally up experiences, adapting our stories to make our lives work, our memories resiliently swing from the past to become optical illusions for the present.

For my newest "chapter" in this series of mixed water-media paintings please visit my NEWEST ART GALLERY.
