Whispers and Shouts

Whispers and Shouts is a personal exploration of my art. It is an attempt to come to terms with myself, others, and my world. Although some pieces vary in form and content, all are expressions of my love and deep concerns for the earth and its inhabitants, plant, animal or human. 

This collection is about relationships, not just my own but those of others. It deals with the interaction of humankind with themselves, others and their environment or world. Through my art I celebrate the unsung hero, rejoice in the beauty of life. I mourn those that suffer and struggle to survive. My art comments on a society that allows the pain to continue. Whispers and Shouts is an exploration into subjects personally important to me as well as a look at the human condition. 

Much of the work can be appreciated from afar. The surfaces are covered with layers of color, paint, and detail. With this richness I attempt to entice the viewer to step closer than the forms become clearer. 

This oeuvre is about relationships, not just my own, but also of others.  Through this work I celebrate the unsung hero or heroine and rejoice in the beauty of life.  I also mourn those that suffer and struggle to survive.  Through this art I comment on a society that allows the pain to continue.
