The inspiration for this work comes from my Rose of Sharon bush that gifts me the most beautiful flowers! They are filled with details and just bursting with life. A connection between abstract and realism is established through the ribbon like movement that ties the two together. The details vibrate within the values of purple creating a magical place to get lost in. Scratchbord® is the perfect medium for me to elicit those fine details. The base layer of clay is covered in India Ink. By drawing into those layers with an X-ACTO knife, I am able to tease out the powerful details that make up Rose of Sharon. Colored inks were added at the end of the process along with the background layer of acrylic paint.

Most of my career was spent as an Art Director/Designer. After a 2006 cancer diagnosis, I followed my dream of making art full time. I began a search for non-toxic materials and found these hard boards which are covered in a fine white clay with a layer of India ink on top. When I draw with an X-ACTO knife into the layer of ink, fine lines magically appear in the clay. The more pressure I put on my knife, the brighter the white clay appears. If I want to add color,I paint with colored inks after etching into the boards.To add even more texture, I add heavy, black acrylic paint throughout the background at the end of the process. My innate ability to notice even the most minute details in nature translates into meticulous art, compelling the viewer to take a closer look. My art is in private collections, has won prestigious awards, residencies and fellowships, and has been requested for exhibitions throughout the world.
