Fire and Fog, 2020
Encaustic, Mulberry Paper, India Ink
36 x 36 x 1.75 inches
My Fire and Fog series is inspired by two cyclical phenomena that have greatly influenced Northern California landscape. Both fog and fire obliterate, turning scenery and nature into gray, black and light. Familiar shapes return when the fog dissipates; fire however leaves behind an eerily tragic, beautiful, charred landscape. Fog creates a comforting, quiet, thoughtful solitude – a blanket around us, encourages contemplation. The aftermath of fire creates similar conditions with charred remnants awaiting future rebirth.

I also like to let ideas and images marinate so that they can subsequently re-emerge in different forms. The Echo series groups sixteen pieces that act as a visual snapshot of different explorations occurring simultaneously.
