My translucent porcelain lithophane was created from my non-fiction children's book illustration of turtles hatching and swimming away from a book called "All About Eggs" by Millicent Selsam. I always enjoy taking my illustrations and creating the magical dimension that occurs when translucent porcelain is backlit. It is part of the permanent collection at the Blair Museum of Lithophanes, Elmore, Ohio.

Collective Unconscious, a large scale relief,  from the series HandWork,  explores the way our point of view is influenced in the subconscious. Many hands represent the variety of ways we are moved by many others on a subconscious level. The colors range from an earthy brown for the physical and intellectual, transitioning to a watery blue as the emotional or heart level and a deeper black going into the depths of our being at the gut level. In Seven Obstacles the same care for metaphor and color will be applied.

Asylums often allowed patients to keep caged canaries. What they did with them was their business. Birds were press-molded then stretched and purposely misshaped.  Straight-jackets & skirts made from slip-dipped workman blue, disposable  paper towels -  it was the man who often made the admittance call to the asylum.
