The nine images shown here are the only ones I have ever made in response to an overwhelming emotion. My ex-husband left me in his mind and body long before I ever put his belongings on the porch of our house in Worthington. His change of heart happened after he attended with me and my…

In the late 90s, I was using templates to create the most beautiful objective images possible. I still have the templates, worn on the edges and colored with the residue of whatever drawing implement passed by them to make uniform lines.

In the process of converting images from slides to digital files using a small scanner, I touch years worth of antiquated records.

When I completed the two-part Drawing with Nature Series here and here, I started to clean up the table in my studio where I had collected the flowers and grasses and leaves for over a year. My intention was to crush everything into dust and return it to the earth. As I started to do…

In 2014, I seemed to have been relishing in the representation of my work by Cross MacKenzie Gallery. Therefore, I neglected to photograph many drawings. The three groups below are among them. The media for the first group of four are silver marker and putty beige colored pencil. They are each ten inches square. The…
