TITLE: Light and Shadow Tease My Eye

This selection of photographs was taken on a sunny day at the Art Institute of Chicago. Sometimes I prefer looking up "at" the walls rather than looking at what is hanging on them. The light and shadow teased my eye and created new shapes.

I was born in a small country town near Pittsburgh, PA, where I went to university and studied painting and sculpture. To be a painter was my dream! For several years I lived in Papua New Guinea and then moved to Sydney, Australia. In both places I worked with clay, mostly high-fired white earthenware, creating minimalist hand built forms. Eventually I returned to the U.S., first to New York City, and then to Chicago where I now live. I’ve come full circle and returned to my first love of painting, but now I paint with light!
