Impossible Balance
Egg tempera on panel, 12 x 24
Artist Statement
Life is as precarious and ephemeral as a balance of rocks
I have always been a collector of found objects, natural and man-made; I find preciousness in things left over. I am fascinated by what came before me–a fingerprint in four thousand year old pottery is as beguiling as a snail shell. Nature continues to captivate me with graceful curves of a skull or fractal patterns of a pinecone.
