Weaving God's Eyes

I love intense color and seeing unusual shades next to each other, just as I love intense people from divergent backgrounds, and a blended and unpolished neighborhood—old and young, shabby and manicured, all sharing experiences and sharing a street. My art draws from the absolute vividness of life.


The diamond shape throws off our typical way of seeing art as either landscape or portrait, and the bands of color draw the viewer into the center like a door to another world. I want my art to help people see the world with fresh eyes.


Color Pairing bold colors like turquoise and red is like wading in a cool river in a hot canyon.

I like to think of color as a divine language unknown to the speaker.

I have never experienced the gift of speaking in tongues, but when I sit before my palette, I ask God to surprise me with a combination of unusual colors like light green and cranberry, or dark brown and coral.

During the quarantine, I began taking longer walks and slower bike rides, noticing the beauty in nature and discarded things.  I noticed my values and my community’s values start to shift.


I would never had predicted people would be buying all the beans and toilet paper off the shelves, but cheap gasoline and cruise vacations would be rejected.  Everyone started baking bread and going for walks on the trails with their families.
