What began, for me, as the desire to re-create something akin to the latest Hubble telescopes visual morphed as soon as paint met canvas. The conversations with the internal and external Artist included arguments and, "Are you sure?" at each turn because what they could see, I could not. The outcome is where Their insistence and my obstinateness meet.

Framework is the reminder that no matter the box of 'understanding' we assign to our experiences, and those of others, All That Is is. Our rigidity of standards, measures and definitions are overlaid on the simplicity of life unfolding as the expression of God's creation. The universe's expansive nature is always and all-ways; far beyond our limited ability to experience and express it. Here, the stars sing, the trinity shines and Grace sighs.

The shapes and colors hold particular meaning to me that might mean something--or feel--different to you. For instance, the larger glowing circle here is reminiscent of Hildegarde of Bingen's use of circles. Whether it was she who guided my hand in this I don't know but the instruction was clear. The smaller circle symbolizes the Word, the Voice of Creation, waiting to emerge at the place where the Heart and the Universe (and courage) meet.

She is 36"x 48", acrylic on canvas. $4900

Conversations with Spirit in Color

I am a shaman and have been healing by the laying on of hands for over a decade. I didn't begin painting until a year ago when color and texture needed to move through me. An insistent, [internal push to a local art supply store begat conversations with Ancestors and Creation that translated onto canvas in a way I'd never experienced. The results are uncanny in their capacity to speak to others, to change the temperature in rooms, and touch people physically and emotionally.

Each piece evolves into its own rhythm and tone, responding to the energies within and around me, and similar to the way I experience synesthesia, emits its own sensory experience. Most pieces challenge the status quo of spiritual spaces and conceptions asking viewers to reevaluate limitations and the liminal. Though each piece is unique, there are universal themes and the consistent use of elemental representation through each. In addition, many pieces are connected to my social justice work focused on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women.
