I took this photo when visiting the second floor of an old building in Maine. The owner told me that this is a portrait of his great grandmother and must date back to the late eighteenth century or early twentieth century. I placed it on the rack where the owner used to tie-dye tee shirts for his customers and shot using a tripod. I liked the contrast of the old black and white photo with the multi-colored paint splatters. Also the old and new paraphernalia on the shelves add to this contrast.
This photo was recently included in a gallery exhibit in Johnson City, Texas. The theme of the exhibition was "Forgotten." 
More recently, it won second prize in the professional division of the 2014 National Arts Program contest at the University of Chicago Medicine.

This is number two in a series of 10 "Conglomerates." I was thinking of my love for fantasy literature and fantasy art and that fantasy dwells in the imagination. Then I remembered that Sigmund Freud's first published work was called "On the Interpretation of Dreams," and since fantasy is a kind of wakeful dream, instead of Freud trying to unravel one of his patients' subconscious, I turned the tables and had Imagination imagining Freud. If you look down on the bottom left, you can just see Freud tentatively peering out at the audience wondering what is going on!

Upon reading the poem by Mary Oliver, The Journey, I was inspired to put together this still life and paint the items my mother saved from my childhood. By going back in time in a very personal way, I was able to feel joy, let go of pain and recognize my artist voice telling me that we, as a society, are all worth saving. But, ultimately, as in the poem, 'The only life you could save', is your own. I hope my paintings make the viewers feel they are worthy of feeling joy and can let go of pain.
