I have it in my mind that the sky is tall and heavy when I could be brave

About Me


Heres the basics:
I am an artist: Portfolio
I am a board member of: ARTSWorcester
I am a member of Worcester Arts Alliance (WAA): Start on The Street
I am a Sije in Kung Fu: LooangFooPai
Artist statement:
"My favorite scenario is when a storm is breaking up right when the sun is setting. This is the subject of “Green Hill Park at Sunset” and “Going Home- Mass Pike”. When the land is covered by the shadow of clouds, the sky is piled high is tones of grey and blue and then just a peak of sunlight breaks through as if the sun wanted to remind you that its still there. It represents hope, something to look forward to and makes me feel inspired to take a moment and live in that moment. I can forget about everything else that needs to be dealt with that day; empty my mind and take in the world.
In contrast my newest piece “Heavy Sky (over Lake Quinsigamond)” is about the darkness, this work is about a destination and the road in which my life travels. There is acknowledgement of the negative an appreciation for its own beauty and solace. The Light represents the focal point with the dark cloud hovering heavily over it. Darkness symbolizes repression and withholding but at the same time; and more importantly; darkness brings comfort and rest. In depicting the sky I can explore a full circle of human emotion through light and atmosphere where each tone can be a contradictory symbol itself."
I plan to continue exploring this theme of withholding in my next series
You Are Sunshine
Soothing and calm
You are often held up by others as the ideal
But too much of you, and they'll get burned
You are best known for: your warmth
Your dominant state: connecting What Type of Weather Are You?
