Delighted to be part the Springing Forward exhibition for Create Magazine curated by Gita Joshi.
“The question remains for all of us—how do we move forward in a time like this? Each artist included in Springing Forward does not give us answers to this question, but instead beautifully offers us possibilities. These scenes of interior life, intimate spaces, contemplative figures, and proud portraits capture the hopeful potential in continuing our daily rituals and sustaining ourselves, as we move forward towards challenging changes and necessary growth. Each painting, collage, or mixed-media piece is a starting point, a place to begin, a possibility for perseverance on one’s own terms.”
