Who? Me?
Iām an artist who daylights as a middle aged mom and art teacher. I spend my days lost in my mind and nights in the studio. I drink too much coffee, never brush my hair and MAY collect way too many microscopic images of organic matter. But hey, everyone needs a hobby. Right?
This body of work is based off research in memory and cognitive neuroscience. I researched how disease and trauma affect memory, storage, and retention for my intuitive abstract compositions. As I paint, I consider the relationship of color, tension, and composition to my own memories. The experiences depicted are both personal and collective.
