I chose the name for this piece before I started painting it. I wanted the title to serve as a springboard for working outside the box. In the center is a nighttime landscape with winter solstice lights. Two sunsets feature silhouettes of bassoon players. Marble sculptures of women and the Rasputin Music billboard from Telegraph Avenue act as ethereal guardians. An Egyptian river, bedecked by a winter camellia, flows beneath the painting and rises up into the winter landscape. California daffodils, Nile ducks, and butterflies ascend into the night. A December porch thief in a red VW bug travels around the painting.

My art creates a feeling of interconnectedness and ambiguity so that we can experience the world a little differently.

I create abstract and representational oil paintings. I paint wet into wet and often mix colors on the canvas to blur the boundaries between objects. My intent is to create a feeling of interconnectedness and ambiguity so that we can experience the world a little differently. I also create charcoal from unique materials such as money, food, documents and plants. These materials have meanings that I can integrate into a drawing or painting.
