I have been creating some silverpoint work, as it really it akin to egg tempera--very linear in approach.



"Intertwined," silverpoint on panel, 6" x 6".  I enjoy creating these intimate panels as a way of drawing the viewer in.   Private Collection.



 
 
"Caress," silverpoint on panel, 5" x 5".  Private Collection.
Again, the intimacy of human nature connecting with the earth.

"Messenger"



I also love shaped panels, this one being three-dimensional, 7" x 8" x 2", egg tempera, gold leaf, oil.  I remember doing this one as a means to hopefully connect with my mom after she passed from Alzheimer's Disease.

"Incandescent Siren"


Egg tempera, gold leaf, pastiglia (raised gesso letters: "Over ancient rites of worship, newer ones prevail--Latin), 19" x 15 3/4".  This piece traveled overseas to an international exhibit and almost was lost, except for a Fed Ex official who located it.

Harbinger, oil, 7" x 7"



Sometimes I just like to assign attributes of  human nature to our woodland creatures.

"Book of Hours: Longing, " Private Collection

 
 
Egg tempera, each panel 5" x 7", w/frame: 9" x 14"    This piece was also featured in American Art Collector magazine.
