Parts of Art

 Patterns is part of my "Of the Woods" miniseries. I combine paint, papers, ink, wax resist, linocut printing, fabric, colored pencils and canvas.  My aim is to combine these various materials to express life in its untamed tangle of exuberant growth. I want to offer a place of solace where, like the tallest trees, one can reach up to the heavens. Patterns is mounted on illustration board; the final size is 8” x 10”. This piece and many more will be available  at the Broad Ripple Art Fair,  May 14th and 15th in Indianapolis, IN

 Here are some of my new series “Soft Florida”.  They were inspired by a recent trip I made to Florida, the Land of Flowers, and the abundant sunlight that immerses everything in its soft light. For more information or to purchase,    visit my store here

I am super excited to announce my very own series of  Original Hand Painted Art Cards. Note cards and more are available  on my  Etsy store here   For the rest of the story and to see a video of the entire process of the making of hand painted art cards: Instagram at parts.of_art These hand painted art cards measure 4” x 6” and are painted on white card stock. The card is first folded, painted, and printed with paint using hand carved linocut stamps, inspired from the pages of my illustrated journal.  Each card is an original acrylic painting, and is left blank inside. The card will arrive with envelope in a protective plastic sleeve.
