SEEING THE PAINT, IN PERSON

At the BEE CAVES ART FOUNDATION, a person can see the paint. Paint is different from the digital reproduction of paint and paintings.These two will be on display for a couple of months at the Hive Gallery at the Bee Cave art Foundation. The one with the doll and Quan Yin is named LOVE AND HOMEGROWN TOMATOES. It's paintied on 1 inch thick cardboard. Oops. The other, one named JUMP!, is my homage to dichotomies everywhere. Notice the paint in the upclose details of the paintings.

FORTIETH ANNIVERSARY AT CERES

The Diversity of Women’s Voices CERES at 40 and Invited Guests January 9 – 27, 2024 This is an enormous exhibit. Powerful, moving and beautiful. Women in our culture have come a long way in the last 40 years. My painting in this exhibit is named CERTIFICATION. It is a narrative metaphor for chasing our ambitions, our goals.
