 SIRENS, NYMPHS, & LADIES

ORIGINALS ON PAPER


 Seductive, contemplative, whimsical sirens of the seas and land have morphed for me over the last several months. These originals painted with blocks of wood and hand colored combined with the textures of the papers create a flow of work that encompasses the ebbs and flows of the universe. 

The term "Sirens"  from Greek Mythology when sailors had been so tempted by the beauty of the Sirens song that they would crash upon the rocky shores to find them.

So often as an artist I find myself following a call I never intended.  I find images in spilled paint, shapes of torn paper, or just looking a the clouds.  those images start faint and dare me to define them.  They call me away on a path I never intended to take.  I feel no remorse for where I've been, only enlightenment and joy for where I am going.

The Artist, like an ancient sailor, following the Sirens Call.
