Inspiration Central

The Oregon Coast





The Oregon Coast is absolutely THE place that inspires me. I have been lucky enough to stay a beach house overlooking the ocean in Depoe Bay for 18 years. Why does the beach inspire me? Perhaps it is the endless time I feel while I am there. Perhaps it is the shapes I love, which are just below the surface of the water. (I can't see them, but I can feel them!!) Perhaps it is the completely different environment. What I do know, is that I get my best art ideas while I am there.

In 2006, I had my first show at the Augen Gallery in Portland, Oregon (my first actual gallery shows were at the Marghitta Feldman Gallery 2003-2005) in Portland. I was 36, and was THRILLED to be in such a great gallery that championed my work. I worked my ass off, made art 6 days a week, and taught at the Art Institute of Portland, and my art was reviewed by Richard Speer in ArtNEWS Magazine! I had many shows afterward, sold a lot of art, connected with individuals and then it ran its course. I was grateful to have had the experience, but the gallery and I weren't a good fit for each other anymore (I was too interested in finding every way I could to make money from my art [read: reproductions|). It ended September 2020. Even thought I don't sell reproductions anymore like I used to, I learned to connect with individuals authentically and discuss how our past and childhoods affect who we are today. I know my mission. and how my art helps individuals. I know who I am and what I

Hands & Leaves as a Reminder to Play

As a young child, I creatively adjusted myself so that nobody really knew what I liked. It was a way to stay under the radar, so as not to rock the boat in my family. I also didn't even really know how to play. Now I know how to express myself and play, but it's taken some time. My colorful work is a reflection of play and how play is also possible for you too. May this piece be a reminder that you're safe to play.
