Queen Of The Fishes

Fragmented Fabulosity Series

34 x 30, Mixed Media on Wood Panel, 2020.

I created this for my dear friend and fish muse – the unflappable Laura Jane Willcock. She has annually hosted a Fish Party to celebrate her birthday along with all Pisces for the last 38 years. Really, it is more of an event, rather than a mere party, with several bands playing, dancing, and fun, but this year it will be a quieter affair— however, the Fish Party must go on! Laura Jane is an amazingly talented entertainer, a really wonderful person with a heart of gold, a fantastic friend, and a True Fish! Happy Birthday Laura Jane!

A Girl For All Seasons

Exhibitions, Figurative, Fragmented Fabulosity Series

I constructed this mosaic mirrored painting based on my A Girl For All Seasons calendar, in order to actively engage the viewer. While looking at this piece, the viewer not only sees the art work, but also sees their own self- image reflected back, therefor, in essence, becoming part of the painting. Perhaps the viewer will contemplate what it means to be “A Girl For All Seasons”? This piece is beyond “Pin Up Girl” ideal/ objectification malarkey, rather, it is about what I consider to be the true meaning of “A Girl For All Seasons”… Can you rise to the occasion and be your best, no matter what the circumstances? Do you engage with people and really hear their stories? Do you feel connection and empathy? Are you a spring chicken even though your “spring has sprung”? What do you do over the ‘winter of our (your) discontent’? Can you pull it together during the off season, open season, party season, swimsuit season, giving season, hurricane season, high season, IN season, and for everything that there is a season …?
