The paintings displayed here are an expression of feeling in dealing with personal issues over the past year or so. These stem from both reactions to current events in our country and the world, as well as personal loss. They are intimate paintings represented by unmade beds and tossed sheets, absent of any human evidence, on intentionally blank, somewhat rough backgrounds. The empty bed in these paintings represents a place for grief, depression or isolation. As such, the work speaks to our shared feeling of grief, with the understanding that while we all suffer in our individual ways, suffering is universal. Source material for this work are photographs I have both taken and found, and the intimate size of the paintings references the intimate nature of the subject matter. The backgrounds of the paintings are repeatedly painted and sanded, to create a frame and backdrop for the bedding that is flat, yet rough with work and time. The bedding itself is seen from different perspectives, but still indicates a scene of desolation and despair.

United States
I am a painter whose work explores themes of isolation, grief, and healing. My work has been shown in various exhibitions in the U.S. and internationally, and I am a fellow at several residencies, most notably at the Florence Trust Studios in London, MASS MoCA in North Adams, Massachusetts, and the Vermont Studio Center, where I was awarded a full fellowship and stipend to attend. Recent exhibitions include solo shows at Buckham Gallery in Flint, MI, and the Mary Helen Cochran Library at Sweet Briar College, and a three-person exhibition at The Leonor Fuller Gallery in Olympia, WA. I was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant in 2020 and in 2018 I received the Ruth and Harold Chenven Foundation Grant. I received a BFA from Carnegie Mellon University and MFA from the University of Chicago.
