TREE SERIES

This series is inspired by the spiritual, the impermanence of life, the pain and joy of growth, nostalgia and the sharp contrast of youth.

Fourth in the Tree series and painted late spring of 2020, Spirit of Spring was an outpouring of love for the rebirth of nature and the ability to be outside to witness it.

While taking walks during winter, I began taking photos of the intricate patterns of tree branches. I have always been inspired by the way the light shines through the leaves and branches of trees. I intuitively use the shapes of the branches and colors from my imagination to portray the light and life of the moment. After creating this peiece I happened accross the perfect word for this natural illuminated color. Komorebi is an untranslatable word, which eloquently captures the effect of sunlight streaming through the leaves of the trees. ... It is the interplay of light, shadows and leaves, and the shape of nature's wisest earthly existence – trees.

ABSTRACT SPIRITS

This past year I learned to play upright bass. Each week my husband and I played jazz with friends. As we progressed, we added dinner and a new cocktail to each meeting. Trying new cocktails with friends and combining them with music was intoxicating in more way than one, and the creativity and fun of it quickly spilled over into my exploration as an artist.
