About The Artwork

This painting plays on the genre of the equestrian portrait, in which kings and princes used to have their portrait on a horse. This regally attired man dominates a space showing his airs of power. However in purple and pink colors and in this broken room, I wanted to make a metaphor of him as a disintegrating archetype. His invasion becomes absurd. There is also uncertainty as to time and place. I wanted to play on a feeling of melodrama, in that this could be a scene in a movie, with a heavy orchestral music in the background.

I am a visual artist originally from California living in my adopted home Edinburgh Scotland. With work in private collections around the USA, Europe and Australia, I also love sharing my love of art through teaching. I have a two year old son and am very inspired by the connection between art making and motherhood, most recently participating in the Artist-In-Residency in Motherhood, and Spilt Milk--a collective of artist-mums. In 2012 I won an Abbey Award Fellowship in Painting at the British School at Rome spending three months in Italy researching the history of the female nude. I subsequently won a year long housing and studio grant from the Roswell Artist in Residence Program, in which I produced a large body of work culminating in a solo exhibit at the Roswell Museum and Art Center. Whatever the subject matter of a painting, ultimately my artistic purpose is to experience the deep flow of creation and to impart that state of presence with the world. I desire to make art that creates more community and connection. Starting with a digital collage process, and creating watercolor studies from the collage, I then make several paintings slowly over many months, where sometimes they are sanded down and reworked taking on various incarnations, or in other cases the piece matures fluidly.
