My work has developed by observing women who express their sexuality in the most candid and explicit fashions. So superficial and promiscuous are we, so determined to drag into the light what might thrive better under the bushes, that sex has lost much of its relish. But what we see in the beautiful bodies paraded in front of our eyes isn't sex but the shadow play of sexiness. In its fullest meaning, sex is erratic and raw, truly mind shattering.

My search for a visual iconography that relates to my personal thoughts, dreams, and experiences has brought me to my current body of work. My life is always ubiquitous in my paintings. Once you find what is true in yourself, you can begin to reach others.
