Artists Council Virtual Online Gallery: Reflections 20/20
The inspiration for my work comes from the roads I have traveled, exploring both urban and rural landscapes. Communities where I have lived, from the Midwest, the San Francisco Bay area, Montana, to the Southern California desert, have all influenced my work and vision. Each geographic region provides opportunities to explore and grow as an artist. It is the recurring themes of familiarity, cultural and historical context, and iconic representations of contemporary landscapes that I find most fascinating and inspiring.
“The New Tait Apartments” blends typography with a humorous twist by juxtaposing the word “new” against a faded, worn hotel sign. This contrast invites viewers to reflect on themes of time, change, and perception.
