Artist Statement:
"These paintings sprung from a traumatic hole in my life that demanded I speak truth to power. While I loved teaching art to receptive college students, I became the recipient of Harassment, Discrimination & Retaliation in Academia. As a pro se litigant, I won an out of court settlement that left me derailed from my former artist self. Doing portraits of people who had prevailed against all odds were attempts to heal. I knew what it was like to face folks bent on my demise. They became conduits for feminine power, strength, gratitude, resilience."
