These were inspired by a trip to the Crystal Bridge. I haven't gone through it since the renovations. I always come back with a multitude of ideas.
These pieces to the right are Stage III, the smaller one, and Stage II, the larger, of a series. I didn't hang Stage I as the wall space was somewhat limited for larger sizes. My sister, brother, daughters, aunt and myself have watched my mom decline rapidly with dementia. I've often wished I could get inside her mind to see what's going on. I can only imagine. These pieces are my interpretation of her brain. The series is not yet finished as this horrible disease still continues to occupy her body. There will be more to come at a later time and will be ended with my conception of her mind when it finally reaches total peace.
Not so perfectly hung. I needed a level to get them just right! Each of these pieces are 10"x 30"
Agaves. I always love them. I've done a series of five like pieces in different colors. All my agave art came from my first trip to Santa Monica. I happened upon the perfect plant with just the right light. Of course it was a perfect trip too since I got to see my daughter and her family!
