Our Oasis: Los Angeles          Oil on Canvas       28” x 84”      2004

“In our dry desert region without the engineering of water, our land would be hopeless. Water is the fountain of life. Like parables from the Holy Bible, God takes our cracked, dry, and weary souls and brings rebirth, renewal, refreshment.”

    ‘Choices’         Mixed Media Assemblage          1991                       

  “This assemblage of garden tools began as I thought about taking common readymade objects and assigning them opposing world views. The round garden shovel, placed upon a piece of knotty pine wood evokes ideas of devotion to the earth, the pitchfork with the charred wood is symbolic of living without reason and the gothic shape with the 24 kt. gold leaf backing talks about purity. Like these tools, we make choices in what we work for and in how we live.”
