Carry On

“Carry On”. A 24 x 30 x 1.5 canvas mixed media painting.  Acrylic portrait  collaged with  mono prints, and handmade papers

I believe when the subject matter is a person, my role as an artist-is a storyteller. Mixed media is the perfect vehicle. The story began with a portrait and then, piece by piece it evolves with layers of  texture, mono prints, fabrics, and embellishments.  

Not because it was easy – but because it was theirs. The burden, the blessing and the will, passed from mother to daughter. I honor their perseverance and their burdens.
