Artist Statement:
I "paint" a landscape with
rocks collected from that
landscape.” She hunts,

two-dimensional surface. She
searches for the colors of the
spectrum in every location, as
a base for her pallette. The
works range from index card
sizes to mural installations.
. Some paintings are actual
re-creations of the landscape;
others are topographical
representations of the geology
where she hunts and gathers.
Maps, if you will, a hawks'
eye view. Recent works are
spiritual in nature. ...

slate blue ones, rosy pink
ones, rusty-colored ones—the
hues in her gravel palette
could fill the page. She’s dug
them up or chipped them off
boulders all over Maine,
affixing them to her canvas
with a mix of ...
