Do any of you other artists ever collaborate?  Work on photography together?  Paintings?  Music?  I tend to be a loner when it comes to my work, but I have had some really great opportunities to work with some amazing artists from around the World on pieces of art that really challenged me but ultimately brought me great satisfaction.  

The piece above is a joint effort between me and my husband William Patrick.  We headed to the beach with his box of toys and I handled all of the choreography and staging while he snapped the shots.  I also handled the post processing.

Down the Rabbit Hole was a very interesting project that I shared with a Canadian artist named Geraldine Gracia.  What we did was each sent each other a package filled with all sorts of bits and pieces of things we collected.  The rule was we had to use EVERYTHING in the package in a mixed media piece.  We could add to it, but we could not subtract.  It really got my imagination going and the end result was a surprise to me.  I to this day continue to sell this piece regularly…so glad it speaks to so many.

Balancing Act was another collaboration piece.  I have done these many times with other artist and it is always fun to see what we create!

Over the years I have experimented with a variety of styles. One of the greatest things about being an artist is that I have no boundaries for creative expression. I can create something different every day! I have developed a few signature styles in my art that I have not seen anyone successfully copy (it’s hard to copy someone else’s vision). People recognize my Labor of Love, Stone Rock’d, Pure Water and Black Magic the most. But this style you see here is one of my favorites. My art often evolves as I am creating and it is as much a delight to me to see what happens as I move paint and water around as it is to my collectors to view it. Deep Visions requires a lot of paint that is then sprayed and moved around with water. Adding expensive inference paints to the mix gives a opulence that is just stunning. This style is reminiscent of coral reef…deep sea…underwater treasures. I paint commission paintings, but no two could ever be exactly alike…
