Cohesion through Limited Palette
Top photo is the paintings as they were. They seem confused and disorganized. Bottom photo is the new, limited palette, which brings the various shapes into a cohesive whole.

New Year's Eve 2022 |
The end of the western calendar year, a time of transition for many of us. I believe it is important to have a vision of the future that is affirming. Humanity cannot solve our collective issues without unifying with each other and realizing that we are the managers of nature now. For too long we have seen ourselves as humans vs. nature. This vision must be replaced with one that is integrative.

Little Paintings on the Floor
Small (6x6x1/8") wood panels with collage on them, lying on my studio floor drying and curing. Acrylic and paper.
Cardboard Decorations
I painted these on corrugated cardboard from a shipping box I received. They had those great holes (except for that little square one). I painted them dark green, dark red, blue-green or purple and then stenciled gold patterns on them. Not sure what I will do with them!
