“I absolutely love the color orange. I wanted to give this piece a lush and verdant vibe, in celebration of the sensuousness of the womanly figure. I had a bit of fun with the name here, too.”

“Here I wanted to convey a sense of tranquil joy. Ophelia floats peacefully upon the cool water, while the sun dances above her, warming her skin. The piece concentrates on her torso, celebrating the simple pleasures of the flesh.”

“One of pop culture’s timeless figures, the lovely and playful Bettie Page. Juicy pastels in flamingo pink and lemon yellow give this piece a retro Florida feel.”

“A piece inspired by vintage Playboy magazine. The simplicity of plain white lingerie and bright copper gold hair draw the eye in. The background of gold streaked rich brown is meant to convey the wood paneling ubiquitous to the rumpus rooms of that era. The heart-shaped pillow is a good bit of tacky fun. Slightly sleazy, and a personal favorite.”

“An homage, both to Julie Newmar as 1960’s Catwoman, and my Gram—she of the fabulously retro leopard print two-piece bathing suit. Lots of red, for blood and power. Reowr!”

“The first painting I ever did that I considered to be ‘real art’. I was so proud! Two sisters stand side by side, in alliance. The space between them plays an equal role here, highlighting the juxtaposition of the green and sun-dappled lushness of the garden, with the darkness of lies and half-truths whispered in the shadows.”

“Here are our strong sisters once more, in a more festive place. The rich yellow background suggests the warmth of the party lantern light, melting against the walls and escaping through windows into the velvety dark night beyond.”
