Flamingo Drive In 🔴

“Flamingo Drive In” is encaustic on wood panel (16″H x 12″W x 1.5″D).

“Flamingo Drive In” was created for my solo exhibit, Waxing Poetic. I found an old public domain image of the Flamingo Movie Theater, and combined some flamingos with what looks like a yearbook, but is actually stars of yesteryear. I love the texture of the encaustic wax build up and the black and white color palette. So happy that the Flamingos found a forever home!

My Heart 🔴

“My Heart” is encaustic on wood panel (10″H x 10″W x 1.5″D).

“My Heart” set a record for me today! I dropped off this new artwork, my first completed piece in 2023, for the Member’s Gallery at the new Rockport Center for the Arts. Before the show was hung, I got a phone call that it had sold and could I make another similar piece before Friday’s opening – sure thing! So I’m working on that right now!

Louise 🔴

“Louise” is encaustic on wood panel (16″H x 12″W x 1.5″D).

“Louise” was created for the South Texas Art League Annual Juried Exhibit at the Art Museum of South Texas. After a photo shoot of our two heifers, Thelma and Louise, it was determined that Louise was the more photogenic cow. The exhibit at the Art Museum of South Texas coincided with the 50th Anniversary of their Singer Building. I drew my inspiration from the Museum’s main exhibit, “Warhol, Johns, and Stella: Revisted” and use Andy Warhol’s cows as inspiration for this new piece.

Go Fish!

Mixed media collage on 10″x10″ cradled wood panel. The background is handpainted vintage papers. Gesso suggests the outline of this angelfish silhouette. You can’t live on the Coast without some birds and fishes creeping into your work, so here’s another fish for your enjoyment!

 

Fish Tales #1 🔴

Fish Tales #1 – Delores from Des Moines (first in a series)

Meet Delores, a fabulous 50’s housewife, living the dream with her matching appliances and wall-to-wall kitchen carpeting. At a recent cocktail party, Delores retreated to the kitchen to refresh the pimento dip pinwheels, and nearly knocked over the cheese ball with her new tail! What’s a gal to do, but continue the party conversation, as a mermaid, and keep refilling the Manhattans?

Shadows and Light 🔴

Mixed media collage on 5″x5″ cradled wood panel.

This monochromatic little piece is the first in a series of 5″x5″ panels. Vintage papers, book pages and some mark-making combine in a grid pattern to create a simple, yet satisfying, composition.
