The Nature Of
These works empower the feminine experience and challenge expectations, while exposing and redefining the limitations of gender roles. Through large-scale and intimate narrative, these paintings highlight female strength and endurance.
The triptych Rudy, Troy, Tomas, individually explore themes of relationships, dwelling, and labor through a familiar and iconic Southern California lens.
Buckshot presents an illusory view of a woman in a corral lifting a horse above her head while seemingly unnoticed or unimpressed by passersby. At the same time, in unison, a hat toss suggests celebration of such an extraordinary feat, whether real or imagined.
The Greek Mythology of Leda and the Swan, and Cassandra, explore the continued experiences and challenges women face, from antiquity to present day. These paintings reimagine their stories of power, deception and injustice, through a contemporary lens.
Taos at 9 months takes a realist view of care and connection drawn in the style of Grand Manner portraiture. In the background are subtle details of car lined streets, ranch homes, and a Nopal cactus growing along a chainlink fence.
