"We never know what is enough until we know what's less than enough."

I am honored and delighted to present “Would it be enough,” my first solo exhibition with the Sketchbook Gallery, Saugerties NY.

As a Hudson Valley-based abstract painter, much of my efforts are focused on creating paintings that encourage viewers to rethink how experiences shape who we are. My thoughts and imagination skirt the boundaries between past, present, and future encounters to seek meaning and purpose of joy and hope, as well as sadness and despair.

With these new paintings, I am inviting the viewer to consider how “enough” plays a role in how we feel, the decisions we make, and the person we continue to grow into.

“The theme of the exhibit came out of my thoughts of a parent who has outlived two of their children, of a people who continue to wonder when, and my understanding that received blessings should not come with guilt.”

I hope you can join in my conversation with Elizabeth Keithline at the gallery on Saturday, May 23 (from 2:00 to 3:00 pm) – it will be fun.
