"I've always loved being at the eye of the storm creatively with people that I find exciting and glamorous.
So sometimes I got sidetracked in my career and maybe I would have done more TV or film."

"Sometimes you get the best light from a burning bridge."

'The sweetest smiles hold the darkest secrets"
- Sara Shepard
As a mixed media artist I collect a lot of ephemera to use in my creations.
The collage elements in this painting are from an old yellowing newspaper.
I was drawn to the retro look and the expression of the face, which I found to be very intriguing!
Painted with many layers of acrylic, wax pencil, and found papers.
Mounted in a white mat ready to frame.

"I personally will never forget that people are more important than buildings."
- Harvey Milk
The graffiti in this painting resides on the building across the alley from where I live. I became curious seeing it daily.
What does it mean? Who painted it? Why did the artist decide to climb down the fire escape from the roof to paint it?
I took a photo of it as I usually do with things that interest me. I knew it would become part of a future painting.
Then an incredible thing happened!
While my painting was on display at an art festival, I noticed two young men spending a lot of time studying it.
Of course, I needed to find out what it was that caught their attention.
As I approached, one of them turned to me and asked, "Do you know what this is?"
I replied, "It's graffiti on the building across from my condo."
He said, "No, it is much more than that. It was painted by a graffiti artist as a memorial for another graffiti artist
who passed away in a motorcycle accident."
Wow, all the questions I had about the graffiti were answered!!
Now when I look out my window and see that beautiful writing, I can feel the admiration and love from one artist to another.
Painted with acrylic, oil pastel, ink pencil and copies of my b&w photos.
Mounted and framed in a beautiful black floater frame.

"When whales want to make a wish, they wish upon a starfish"
