Portrait in Blue, Imagine

This is the self portrait I am submitting for a self portrait challenge SPC, ispired by the color Blue. For the poet Wallace Stevens, who inspired me, this color symbolizes imagination. In my portrait I am dancing with a shimmery blue shawl. There are no limits to imagination! Photo_58_3

I saw this and the first thing I said was "wow!" This shot kicks ass.

This is a beautiful, stunning photo. I will have to look up the poetry you speak of!

This has a very other worldy feel to me. I imagine you as a ghost in a haunted hotel.

Wonderful photograph. The color and movement in it are fantastic!

Mama~

What calls from beyond...

inside the book

  • IMG_2848
    "What calls from beyond" is a handmade book that symbolizes my journey as an artist. I have only been working on collages for a while now, before this I have primarily been a painter... Each page is an exploration in texture and design, and each page has a special meaning to me.

My Photo

Paintings

  • Img_0704
    This is my current work. Many of these paintings are sold, and some are still available to purchase. They are painted with acrylic, and layered with hand-made papers and different mediums such as glazes, gels and sand. If you are interested you may contact me through my email. With every piece of art I create I learn something new and I like to challenge myself. My mother was my first art teacher. With her I was constantly surrounded by art and beauty.

Teaching moments

  • Img_1079_2
    I have had many wonderful moments as a teacher. Wether I am outside teaching nature journaling over the Klamath River Canyon or at Spencer Creek with an adult class of other teachers, or inside a classroom filled with adults or children studying birds and feathers I am always inspired. The last few years I have also been teaching clay classes, and we made had-pressed bowls for the empty bowl project with Henley Middle School. I also teach a class called Art and Rhythm where we study dance and drumming from other cultures.

    These photographs portray my world outside, the colors, textures and patterns that I see in my gardens in southern Oregon.
