Artist's Bio

Some of these experiences overlapped each other, so she is not that old.Current time is divided between nutritional cooking and abstract painting and poetry. 

Statement

A good painting is detached from expectations, perhaps even my own. Painting invites me to experience something new; enlightening, healing, spiritual, energetic, evolutionary — a panacea for right now, and perhaps some insight into what is to come.My current abstract paintings and poems are feelings of sounds and light that invite me to evolve. They were inspired in large part by the energy of Yayoi Kusama, the polka-dot queen of Japan, still creating, still evolving in her late 80's. ​
