The River was born as an abstract landscape from my memories of SW Colorado. What evolved, however, was a deeply personal recognition of the power of home, faith in The Calling, and trust in Her, the flow of Creation that leads to the depths of the heart. Layers of texture created their own flow and every time I argued about what I was being asked to do, "Trust" was the response.

Ultimately, this became expression other answer to my prayer, "Please just get me home."

The River is one of two available pieces that lower the temperature of room and immediately calms those who see it. When She appears in dreams, they feel the flow touch and heal them.

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.
