| In the summer of 2002 I began a new project--ISLANDS: painting the spirit of the Pacific Northwest--exploring watershed issues & totem animals of our Pacific coastal region. Sixteen core images arose spontaneously after spending a solitary day at the beach. The images challenged me--I didn't know how to paint them. I began an unforeseeable journey of research & experimentation. To bring forth the 16 large shamanic images, many works are needed, along with writing music & lyrics. I've envisioned meeting with fishermen, wildlife bioligists, first people, foresters, activists, & kindred artists. I've hoped to foster collaborative installations & performances, to infuse the project with community input & value. By the end of 2005, ISLANDS had grown to 200 pieces, including large & small acrylic & watercolor paintings; pastel, charcoal, & ink drawings; experimental mixed media pieces; & linocuts. Works have been shown at environmental centers & festivals, art galleries, restaurants, public hearings, fundraisers, & civic meetings. You can help make ISLANDS a truly effective project. You can
The intent of ISLANDS is to celebrate ecological attitudes & actions. Seeking a visual voice for salmon, redwood, otter, tule, bat, eelgrass, & bear is my effort to honor our beautiful watershed & its diverse inhabitants.
