My art reflects a lifetime immersed in visual and performing arts from all over the world. It has evolved from margin doodles, to pen and pencil drawings, to collages using upcycled materials—foil, paper, photos and other intriguing found textures and colors–combined with my own drawings. I embrace a colorful, surrealist aesthetic, inspired by intriguing interwoven patterns, puzzles, nature, gestures of dance, and improvisational jazz. Whimsical flora and fauna creatures, embedded in environments I call “paper quilt squares,” provide narrative commentary on current events, feminist topics, and environmental issues. Every square has a story, and I invite you to look through the gallery “Artworks” menu item and visit my blog “LA Art Notes” menu item to join me on this evolving artistic journey.
