Above “Sophia Sees”, 12” x 48”, mixed media
She appears out of the swirling wildness with eyes wide open. I named her after the Goddess of wisdom…as wisdom only comes from having been through a wild thing or two…or three…and on & on. Her sister piece “Eve Sleeps” found a new home at the opening. Maybe “Sophia Sees” is waiting for you.
Above “Eclipse of the Womb”, 24” x 36”
I have not shared this piece in a while. It was a piece that began many many years ago but I reworked it several times. The very last time was after I had a miscarriage. Because of that I had always seen it as darkness blocking the light.
When I was hanging it up for show a young woman who works at the gallery, Sage, looked at it and saw buried treasure…like a pirate ship. I’m so grateful to Sage for sharing her imagination. Some how I think I’m folding in her narrative into the story of this painting. “Eclipse” is available online but I highly recommend going to see it in person. It has gold oil paint that is hard to capture in a photo. It also looks stunning hanging from the drift wood in the gallery…also I couldn’t get that in the photo because I was trying to show you Kristin Bispels beautiful Fairy Love Cups!!!
Above “Sapphire: Soul Mandala”, 8” x 8”, encaustic
I was so overwhelmed with the support for my Mandala Mala Project. At the opening $800 was raised for Endowhat? Only one mandala is left in the gallery…your $250 donation will make “Sapphire: Soul Mandala” yours to keep and make a big difference for advocacy and awareness of endometriosis!
