I'm excited to have New Earth Goddess Portal III, my new mixed media painting included in the alumni exhibition at Wellington B. Gray Gallery, Jenkins Fine Arts Center.

Jenkins Center was built AFTER I graduated - when Dr. Gray was Dean of the Art School. I took his course in American Art History!

This is such an important honor because of its history. It marks the New Earth Series, through which I first felt the shift in this new energy coming through, and my own history as an artist as well.

As a teenager in 1969, when visiting Altamira in Northern Spain, I felt this deep connection via cave paintings I encountered. The feeling of standing in the footprints of a prehistoric goddess never left me.

This year painting my New Earth Goddess Portal Series brought her through at a time when we (and the whole world) need her more than ever!

The exhibition painting IS AVAILABLE!!! You can purchase directly through me. After the exhibition, we'll ship it to you along with provenance from the exhibition.
