The figure has been my main studio engagement for the past twenty-five years. In my current work, after experiencing the loss of parents and homestead, I found myself flooded with memories of childhood and family. Surrounded by photographs and mementoes from the past has helped recall visual and emotional impressions of the life I once had; the clothes I wore, the color of my hair, the dolls I cared for, my nine siblings, the games we played and the farm where we were raised. The creative process has allowed me to begin to capture the essence of the past through a collage of memories and dreams, helping to commemorate my origins.
