I received a BFA in Sculpture from SFAI in 1973. In the 80’s I immersed myself in the L.A. Woman’s Building, participating in performance, installation, and public art. At the age of 45 I moved to Michigan with a young family where, 25 years later, I paint, create altars, and installations in my studio which includes the 12 acres of woods that surround my home.

"Paintings, assemblage and installations centered on themes of home, place and identity."
The journey and search for home, both literally in my surroundings, and metaphorically in my self has been a constant theme underlying my work. Environments and exploration guide my art practice. The materials I use, their inherent physicality and stories, literally form the foundation of my art-making. Play and expression through materials is as vital to my work as subject and content. Shown here are a series of “Home” paintings. I find the house shape to be beautiful and endlessly provocative -- solid and grounded, pointing upward final, and open at the same time.I received a BFA in Sculpture from SFAI in 1973.
