Work on Display at Cerritos Library

My work is on display at the beautiful Cerritos Library May to the end of June. Stop by and take a look, and send me a message here. I’d love to hear from you!

“Joy Spring”

It took almost a year to complete this project. I was having such a great time with the central figure, but when it got to the background, I was stumped. I let it languish about the studio for a while until a few key conversations with two artists I respect and admire (Luz Mack and Kelley Knickerbocker) suggested a matte tile with colorful thinset in the background. I plan to do a few more of these, based on drawings I made during the pandemic. Happy New Year, everyone!

from Drawing to Mosaic

I am working on interpreting a series of my drawings, done over the last few years, into mosaic. Here’s the first one. It’s a challenge to find just the right materials and also to maintain the detail within the size. This piece is 24” x 24”.

Here Comes the Sun Commission

Working on a joyful piece in the studio for a private residence, inspired by Talavera tiles. Using almost all recycled broken plates, cups and tile with a special surprise of glow-in-the-dark tiles (the blue outline).
