Intentaron enterrarnos. No sabían que éramos semillas is a Mexican Proverb. I discovered it when I first came to Mexico and have wanted to do a mixed media piece ever since. I made all the collage papers.
Resistance Art - That Will Be Fun
This is my first piece of Resistance Art. It's a reminder of who we are and even though we are elderly we are the "Sage" elderly and are not to be messed with.
Cuban Jazz
Inspiration: I traveled to Cuba a number of years ago and so enjoyed the Salsa musicians and dancers there.
Mexican Jazz
Inspiration: I have been so very inspired by the jazz of local musician, Eleazar Soto. His music is pure joy.
Mexican Sunset
Inspiration: I often walk down to Lake Chapala and photograph the gorgeous sunsets. The sunset, hills and sunflowers are all collage. I painted the girl from a photograph I took of her marching in a local parade. The parrot was added collage paper.
Sonoma Sunset
Inspiration: I lived in Sonoma County California for many years and loved the golden foothills around me.Although the fields are usually filled with grapevines, I am passionate about gardens and especially love to grow flowers.
How The Light Gets In
Inspiration: "There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in." Leonard Cohen
Singing Bird
Inspiration: "A bird does not sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song." Maya Angelou
Meditation
Inspiration: My mother taught me to meditate when I was in my twenties. I have meditated most every day since.
