'Arborglyphs'
‘Arborglyphs’
is the name for the Aspen trees that
shepherds carved graffiti onto while they
tended their animals in the lonely mountains
of southwestern Colorado. Documentation is
currently being made of these older trees
before they die and their legend disappears.

'Natural Abstractions'
Because I am an avid outdoors person, bits
and pieces of the landscape (roots, rocks,
vines, trees, grasses, palm sheaths, and
leaves) are juxtaposed in my artwork in an
abstract manner. Because nature renews and
invigorates me, it is a source of reflection
and a catalyst for creativity and
spirituality.

'Family Album Hieroglyphics'
When I first became involved with
printmaking, I was totally involved with my
young children. Our family took many trips
in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona.
We hiked through the canyon lands and
visited many unusual rock formations, Indian
cliff dwellings, pueblos, and petroglyphs.

'Shaped Paintings'
Although the gyrating, swirling figures in my art
are loosely based on Michelangelo’s
paintings in the Sistine Chapel, my themes
of indiscreet pleasure are more congruous
with the subsequent works of several Italian
Baroque and Rococo artists. 'Ascension',
'submission', and 'rotation' are common
denominators, but are portrayed in a more
wanton and heedless manner.
