This painting belongs to a larger, ever growing collection of bone paintings. I love the density and color of bones, the textures and profiles. They are never straight or perfectly curved. They hold and reflect light in opalescent tones. Bones tell a story. Bones change to reflect our lived experiences and are collected to remind us of the mineral quality of all life. The Schnauzer skull that served as the model for this painting was borrowed from a friend. It belonged to her childhood dog. Knowing the story of the bones added a lot more meaning to the painting process. This original oil painting is professionally framed in a small, simply carved, wood frame that compliments the dark notes in the painting.

The first time I painted with oils I knew this is what I was meant to do the rest of my life. Everything about oil paint resonates with me. As a person who relishes corporeal experiences,the olfactory delight of linseed oil and the visual richness of glistening pigments intoxicates me. As an artist who approaches the easel with only a silhouette of an idea, the range of oil paint-- from translucent glazes to opaque, juicy passages--inspires the spontaneity and experimentation that is so essential to my creative process. When paint stays wet for several days, anything becomes possible. Brushstrokes can be manipulated, scraped off, or remixed into new colors. In this flexible state, art becomes more present, more capable of capturing the subtle changes of mood and emotion. Oil painting makes me fearless in this knowing. Oil painting brings me closer to myself.
