YOU CAN BE A VIRGIN AGAIN
There is a sense of exhilaration and freshness in entering a new medium . When this happens one is both innocent and ignorant of new skills, demands, and directions, but to make the commitment, it is necessary to respect the medium’s requirements and to pay the dues. It is also necessary and important to acknowledge that the combination of the fresh new and the ripened old can create richer work.
I have had lives in fiber sculpture and
Painting and now photography. My
Personal signature remains the same…
Sensual color, lighting, textures, and
The mystery that the medium can
Contribute to the image.
My roots are the same…I still love fiber sculptor Magdalena Abakanowicz, painters Rembrandt, Cezanne, and DeKooning… and now I add the likes of photographer Ansel Adams to my list .
You can be a virgin again.
Re: The Honey Jar Series
Over and over again I am asked two questions: why the honey jar?
And where the honey jar?
I have selected the honey jar as my focal point because the light
Shining through the honey onto a palette of varied colored cloths, ribbons, and papers creates still lifes which are simultaneously sensual and mysterious.
The answer to the second question (where is the honey jar?) must be found by the viewer. The honey jar(s) is there….you must find it!
