The Stone

The Stone, Acrylic Painting on Canvas, 40x40 inches, 2012

I needed pink. This harsh canvas, ripped and torn, I textured with spontaneous lines to invoke a natural energy—roots and branches.  The present is too boring without memory, so I pulled this pink lace/flower/island/house from my memory and made a stepping stone. As a child, I walked to a stream.  I didn’t want to get wet, so I used a stepping stone. This is my romance. This is my memory.
