These works represent my exploration of botanical and gestural imagery. I work in many different styles, and I often use double images because I am interested in the "dialogue" this creates between the different areas of the work. Small natural forms, twigs, ferns, flowers, etc. leave room for experimentation with sumi-like strokes and lines and the layering of glazes throughout the composition. I go to nature and the possibilities inherent in the materials for inspiration. It is an ongoing endeavor.
