Heart of Gold
"Heart of Gold" is an emotionally charged collage and painting that combines muted blue tones and abstract forms to represent a city scene filled with both challenge and solace. Created during a difficult period when my son faced surgery for a sudden injury in San Francisco, this piece reflects the contrasting emotions of vulnerability and resilience. As we navigated the complexities of being visitors in a bustling city, the warmth and support from the local community enveloped us, bringing comfort in our time of need.
Each pass of the brush and collage element comes together to celebrate my son’s kind and gentle spirit, embodying the strength found in connection and care. This artwork serves as a reminder of the beauty that can emerge from moments of struggle, inviting viewers to explore their own experiences of community and compassion amidst the chaos of sudden trauma.

I use high quality, professional grade acrylic paints and mediums, oil sticks, as well as top quality substrates and acid free paper. I make most of my own collage papers using the same paints as the final paintings. If there is vintage collage, it will be layered over with protective UV mediums to ensure the color stays as true as possible. However, the natural aging of the vintage papers is to be appreciated for its imperfect beauty.
Each painting receives an isolation coat prior to a wax finish, or UV varnish in matte, satin, or a combination of both. Cradled panels will be finished in a polyurethane or hand-painted to showcase the art. Frames are finished in a poly finish as well, or hand-painted and will be described as such under Description.
All artwork comes ready to hang with d-rings, coated wire and is signed on the front and/or the back. Each piece also comes with a certificate of authenticity.
