Are These Portraits?

Gallery 100 at The Silos at Sawyer Yards, Houston, TX

After years of working with found photographs, I found myself drawn to the memories one chooses to keep: correspondence, recipes, books, and notes, the personal records of a life lived. In Are These Portraits?, these mementos are combined with abstract marks of mixed media, built up in layers over days and weeks. The details of each piece unfolded like a conversation as I worked, revealing themselves one layer at a time, much like getting to know someone.
