Consistent though this body of work is a concern with energy in its many forms and the viewer’s deep emotional response to color. The paintings have their origin in the artist’s childhood experience of stargazing with a telescope, and the feeling of sublime connectedness to things beyond the physical environment and conscious comprehension. The desire to relive that feeling inspires her to create these painted atmospheres. They are free of narrative or subject matter, and like poetry offer the viewer a door through which they may enter to experience the depth of their own imagination.
