Between Memory and Promise
Oil on Canvas
30 x 24 x 1.5 in

The process for this piece started with with inspiration from songs about love, loss and renewal: building a composition with circles, coils, DNA strands, and the colour red for seeds of new life. I am attracted to life’s geometry, unfurling fronds, hidden order in disorder, and the stubborn persistence of nature.


This was a cornerstone portfolio piece that I chose not to offer for sale because it connects with ideas still developing for new work. However, there may be a very small edition of archival giclée prints coming in 2022.
