My Process of Art Making

    Like a fine piece of music has the power to change our feelings and alter our emotions, an image can have the same effect. I try in my pictures to move and inspire people. My work is about being in touch with my soul and same time my emotional and physical baggage exposed. My images are both reflection and expression in that I do not aim or plan a final picture, but instead allow myself to be found within it as it occurs.

I call it “painting with the machine”

I usually carry a small camera with me to snap a picture of interesting objects or landscapes for my collection. I have hundreds of thumbthrives full of snaps of random pictures. I layer them together in Photoshop. For instance I use a sky picture that was taken in Estonia and combine it with the grass picture taken from my backyard. I often use sentimental objects in my images. Such as my daughters summer dress, my childhood toy piano or letters that my grandmother has written me.

I know this process of art making has given me my voice back. Often I have made these pictures in times when words fail to express what my inner soul wants to say but does not know how or feels too scared to speak the truth. I use my intuition to express all that what is hidden inside in my soul in order to bring the beautiful and not so beautiful parts of me into the light. I am fascinated by mythology, Carl Jung and one of my favorite books is "Women Running with Wolves".     I print them using Epson 3880 printer on Epson Velvet Fine Art paper. You can order them directly from my website or you can visit East End Gallery in Marchall Michigan or where my latest work is currently displayed. Also you can visit my booth and you can find the shows that I will partisipate in 2018 below. Enjoy! Thank You
