Fight or Flight Series

Fight or Flight ...

...it’s a choice we will make thousands of times in

the course of our lives. We will either painfully fight

against our struggles or let ourselves ascend into a

deep peace within our souls, a place from which we

can heal ourselves from the inside out.

 

Each painting in my seriesFight or Flight has

motion that takes you up and out through the top

of the work, away from your life struggles. Upward

flying creatures that are thought to carry human

souls to heaven in many cultures, also take you up,

out, and back into your inner soul.

 

I love using bright and muted colors and discovering the many textures and colors that emerge when layer after layer of paint is applied.

 

My hope is that you, as the viewer of my work,

can find the way to escape from your life struggles and return to a peaceful place in your inner soul. Be free!
