Shorelines, pond and river edges; beaches, sandbars, rock
cliffs: these are liminal places that invite reflection and contemplation of
stillness, power, chaos, change.
This summer has been full of family and close friends for
me: full of reunions, celebrations, intimate conversations. This has stirred up
old memories and new possibilities, and lately I have the sense that I have
been painting from deep in my heart.
In body, mind, memory, and soul, I go to the waters’s edge,
and bring back what I find there.
