Adam Amengual has been a strong influence since we met at Mass Art almost 14 years ago. Both his photography & his commitment to his craft have inspired me in my own work. I’ve drawn from his use of color and have repeatedly used his photos as reference. So please take a look at his work and recent accolades.

FINALLY! Stephen Holding and I have been steadily collaborating since our 2007 joint exhibit- Inner Vision at Six Keyz Gallery in Hong Kong. We’ve received many requests to release a print set based off of our collabs. It’s been a bit of a challenge to fulfill that request as our collaborations are layered panels of plexiglass and watercolor paper built into custom shadow box frames. However, we finally have a 2D image that translates the 3D quality of our joint work & so, without further ado, I’d like to present, our first collaborative print-“INNERVISION 1”

A large cardboard tube arrived this afternoon all the way from Columbia & completely made my week. Inside was the very ripe fruit of a 2 year correspondence/ collaboration with my buddy, Bogotá’s STINKFISH. Our hectic, conflicting schedules made our collaboration process slow but, the piece was well worth the wait. I hope you think so too.

Prints of the collab are already on their way- they’re available for pre-order HERE.

After many requests, I’ve re-released my REMEMBER print. This is a special edition as it is full size.

I hope you enjoy!

Hello everyone,

It’s been a really long, long time. I have been one BUSY lady and my blog has certainly suffered during this whirlwind year. I see no better way to rekindle my dialogue with you than to offer a sneak peak into one of my current projects,The Obama Portrait Project. This project is the brain-child of my friend, Mioko– who wanted to demonstrate her support for our president in an artistic manner & offered me the opportunity to join her.

Our site will be live any moment now, in the interim, please stop by my web-store to view larger images and pre-order the set. All proceeds will be donated to the DNC.

I will post more when the site goes live.

The new prints are up!
