Other Work

Diptych and triptych and multi-tych and the images that don't fit into my tidy catagories.

128 Sea triptych

#128 SEA TRYPTYCH A '03 (appx 60"x28") This was taken midday of the waters off Ocho Rios, Jamaica. These can no longer be exactly reproduced. Detecting the reasons why took me a long time. I am caught between the changing film, paper; other new development technologies. Unfortunately, I can no longer get optical 20x30 copies, and the digital reproductions don't faithfully reproduce the original image, but I keep trying.

191 Beauty

#185 CIVIL UNION II '04 This 4x6 photo and it's male equilivant
is a celebration of the respectful attitude in Vermont for the individual.

202 Fractured House

#214 FLAT REALITY'06 This photo was taken in Montana.
I like the real/fake/real/fakeness of this image.

#200 DALI'S MOUSTACHE '01
This photo often elicits a double-take,

#202 FRACTURED HOUSE '99 assembled '06 (42 3/4"x60")
This 16 paneled photo was misprinted but I didn't notice until too late.
It became the first of my assembled, multipaneled pieces.

205 Paint Tray

#171 &172 DIPTYCH assembled '06 (appx 38"x28")
These are part of a watercolor paintbox.

# 191 BEAUTY ( ' 04-'06) ....43"x59"

The subject of beauty has long fascinated me. As a scabby kneed girl with dandelion fluff hair, I remember trying to be “pretty”. The new Tonette didn’t work, (I did get an amazing afro though) the “Beauty Parlor” was a fraud; finger waves didn’t make me pretty. When I developed breasts, I got something but it wasn’t ‘pretty’. Just a whole new set of questions. Somehow I think it is all connected ultimately with being loved, for exactly who/how we are. Doesn’t it get mucky, the confusion and fun of lust and love? Aging brings on another set of questions. My current thought is that we’re often beautiful……. and it varies. And what about cultural standards?
