Sneak peek of a few pieces I am working on in the studio!

This is just a portion of a small work that is almost finished

The poisoned vessel is almost completed. 

You can't take my tiger's heart. This one is coming together. Another small work.

In the studio


A room to call my own. Work can be left out not worrying whether 
the kitties will get their paws in my paints and pastels again!
Update. Picture of studio taken as of February 11th. As you can see I did some decorating.

Plastic surgery and other thoughts swirling through my brain as a child.



‎11.11.11 With this upcoming show I am sharing some of my childhood before and after drawings I was working on in 1985 while on a road trip from PA to CA. I was 9 years old and have often wondered what I saw that gave me this idea about plastic surgery. I have mixed feelings about the subject. On one side I feel it is such an amazing science. The other side is questionable, how some people go so far that their face can no longer smile or show emotion. My recreation of my childhood drawing deals more with how we can see ourselves in the mirror as distorted even though we are beautiful how we are.
