Leave the Light On

Oil on wood, mixed media, 23 inches x 36 inches x 9 inches

Within our built environment there lives a story. Behind the slightly opened door of “Leave the Light On”, we find a woman reading by candlelight in quiet solitude. I use architecture as my metaphor to connect with people. Within our walls, there are untold stories that quietly reside.

With my background in printmaking, I am drawn to use my technical mind to build with my hands. With the gentle curve of the staircase, I incorporate the feminine with the masculinity of structure and building. Yet the soul of the work is revealed behind the door, the woman reading a book by candle light, and the bird on perched on the railing.
