simply handwriting.
recently I was asked to make the painting above,
with the words from the poem "Love After Love" by Derek Walcott
I loved it so much in fact....
I decided to make a diptych of our vows from our wedding!
I cannot wait to hang them in our bedroom!!
if a painting like this interests you as well, you can go to my commission page to view the price chart according to size and take 25% off the listed price since the painting is simply handwriting.
email me if you are interested, I work with people that need to pay in installments or who are on a budget, feel free to inquire.

100 Series : Studies
![]() |
| Tension ; 12" X 18" |
In these studies, I wanted to bring a pop of color back into my work, I love neutral tones and have been using them a lot lately, but I was missing colors. My other goal was to combine the delicate machine embroidery lines with rough pastel lines that were more loosely expressive and chunky, less sensitive looking to bring another element of movement to the piece with a different form of line. I have been enjoying working on paper, it takes the pressure off of "wasting a panel" and I feel free to make actual studies.

| Wrap ; 12" X 18" |
My plan is to let the buyer decide how they would like the piece displayed:
mounted to a wood panel (2" thick) or
framed in a gallery style frame- white mat, simple gallery style white wood frame
(photos of both of these options to come)
ALL pieces are $100
mounted to 12" X 18" wood panel or in white 18" X 24" frame
