Artists Registry

I have been painting in my studio since the mid-fifties. My teachers were members of The New York School.  I gravitated to Tenth Street, the Cedar Tavern and The Club, a gathering place for the “painting obsessed artist.”

In painting this work shortly after the 911 attack, I felt that we all needed to rekindle
the logs of hope, bring light where there is darkness and an image that signals this.

The poem Times Square, comes from the book Wheels Turning Inward.

"STAIRWAY TO DEDICATION, IN HONOR OF THOSE WHO PUT THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE FOR US DAILY", The firemen were going up the stairs as the people were running out at WTC.

I took my first trip to "ground zero" this year and was very moved by the experience. Having watched that horrible day unfold on TV and then finally coming to New York and standing where it all happened was just very powerful.

Clicking on the icon with the feather will bring up a link to the more readable pdf version of the poem.

We visited the national 911 Memorial in late June 2012, and the experience moved me in a very special way. The result is my poem, Forever Upright and Skyward.

I did an art lesson with my students on Rene Magritte, the Surrealist Artist. We were inspired by his work, The False Mirror, to created an image of our own framed by the shape of an eye.

I focus on time, memory and nature. My work concerns the ways people collect, preserve and remember the quotidian aspects of life as well as life changing events.
