  As a printmaker and mixed media artist, my work is basically autobiographical. A specific event or activity, either in my life or in the life of our universe as I experience it, serves as the inspiration. From that, my creative process begins, deciding what format the work should take, be it a monoprint, book, or mixed media. In contrast to artists who repeatedly use a certain vocabulary of marks, colors or images, I let the subject or message determine both the process and vocabulary. The result is a progression of artworks which occupy me till they have run their course and another significant event occurs. My living in a tent for 10 weeks, 9/11, the anniversary of the holocaust as the child of a survivor, my mother’s death, my return to swimming, the incarceration of a relative, have all been trigger events for a series of works.

I hope you enjoy viewing my work and invite any questions or discussion at pw3547@aol.com. Thanks for visiting my website…
