Self Portrait Cape Cod The Cotuit Center for The Arts 1/7/08 -2/9/08
Fifty five Cape artists displaying works they created in their own image. Self Portrait Cape Cod is the second annual event of the Arts Education Initiative of the Arts Foundation of Cape Cod. By displaying a wide variety of interpretations of the self portrait, the exhibit highlights the many different ways in which artists approach the creation of a self portrait, in a variety of different media, and at different stages of life. Conceived and curated with children in mind, Self Portrait Cape Cod confirms the importance of arts education at all stages of our growth as creative individuals.

New Work Brewster Ladies Library April 2008
This show is dedicated to my parents who passed away within four months of each other this past year, 2006.

This exhibition will consist of a series of large scale oil paintings; skyscapes with a touch of earth - dunes, marshes and beaches along the canvas bottom edge. They are painted and inspired from the skys overhead during my walks on the beach while both Mom and Dad were ill and after their deaths. They represent sadness, loss, strength, support, love, release, continuance and joy.

They were amazing and unusual skys.

The paintings are deeply about life and it's continuation and transformation through "death" which I believe, is a shedding of skin to move into the expanse of larger life, to that which we are all connected even, during our short stay here on this magnificent earth.

Please check in again for Exhibition Opening, dates and time after January 2008.
