Italian Dreaming

The Italian Sleeping image, measuring approximately 18x20", stands out among the others. It invites you to create your own interpretation of what an Italian might be dreaming about. In this piece, I depicted holding up the moon.

Water

The reflection on water has always inspired me, offering a chance to experiment with tonal variations in color and to explore the interplay of shapes. The color blue evokes a sense of calm and tranquility, while also conveying a feeling of expansiveness, as it reminds us of the sky and the ocean.

Golden Light

In the center of the image suggests a metaphor to maintain balance amidst life's challenges.

Golden Light

Nowhere to Go But Here

Another metaphor comes to mind: observing a flock of blackbirds flying across the blue sky with a clear intention in one direction, only to return shortly after still with that same intention but heading the opposite way. I often find myself making similar choices in life, and I want to remind myself that "there is nowhere else to go but here"—to be present the moment, rather than in the past or about the future.

Maikäfer
I love drawing into  vibrant fields of color. This drawing  was inspired by the lovely brown beetles we used to gather as kids when they fell from walnut trees in June.

Longing abstract forms lyrical movement

"Longing"
How can one capture a feeling? Perhaps through color, line, and an abstraction that defies explanation. It is a yearning for harmony, peace, and a sense of oneness that remains perpetually elusive.
