Conversations with Land
DeepListening MarkMaking
This body of work is influenced by my personal relationship with the Spirit that lives in all things.
Listening deeply allows my mind to get out of the way allowing me to reach a deeper place inside me, to feel and respond to Land. My direct emotional response and interaction with Land is what creates a mark. Relationships are built by an exchange of energy and respect.
These paintings are honoring to Land, to the Space, and to our relationship between the two. Healing happens when we remember, reconnect, and balance our relations to the Spirit that lives in all things. This work is a prayer, an honoring, a blessing, an offering, to the Web of Life. These paintings are healing artworks. They create a bridge, a relationship, between the viewer and the Land we live on — bringing balance, joy and energy to life.
