Still Point

In the still life, Clay Vessels, the vessels act as fertility statues of times past. The different sizes of each pot speak toward a variety of experiences and individuality with room both for the poetic and the painful.

Pots and Pails continues the idea of the vessel as a potent metaphor for expectation and nourishment, a narrative somehow both fragile and resilient. There is hope in this symbol and yet there is an emptiness that also speaks, perhaps loudly for some.

"Keisha, the woman I painted in The Woman with Water, is an extraordinary life model. She was also the subject of a prior work of mine, Living Water.

"I can remember when I first started to paint Keshia. She had an iconic look that seemed to embody the strength and beauty found in women throughout history. In this piece, she carries a vessel that is continuously being replenished and emptied, symbolizing
the needs of her physical thirst and that which is deeper, her spirit.

"The question lingers in this painting: Can our thirst ever be quenched? The Woman with Water similarly explores the human search for wholeness and for that which supplies us with our sustenance, our purpose, and our endurance." –

"I hated the secrecy and the hiding. I hated that I was becoming someone I didn’t even like. I wanted so desperately to wake up one day to the person I first met, with this terrible nightmare behind us. I wanted to reclaim the cheerful, funny, lighthearted, deeply transparent and honest person I had always been. Where did she go, I wondered, and would I ever get her back?"

"Being an artist is a search for poetry. I try to live in daily pursuit of what is a calling for me: to paint, to see, to find by paying attention, and to share it with those who take the time to look. We are presented with beauty and wisdom daily, sometimes in very obvious ways, but more often they are offered to us when we do something as simple as breathe deeper, wait longer, or agree to really listen. This was certainly true for me as I created the work for Unseen Beauty, Unheard Voices, Unnoticed Wisdom." –
