Though the figure is not me, her is experience is based on my trip to Venice during pandemic lockdown. One of my life’s most astonishing experiences will always be twice riding for an hour in a gondola, with not another boat in sight. The water calm. I was surrounded by the architecture, the ornatments on the boat, and the sound of the oar (“remo”) moving the water. It was almost too much beauty to bear.

In the past year it was our family’s turn to be exposed to sorrow and loss. I imagined my Nymphs, usually so playful and feisty, and how they would give solace to one another. I wondered about clothing them, about the nudity.

The small size, however, bothered me. I wanted to try them at a bigger size, and so I made Grief.

When on Feb. 24 Putin’s army invaded Ukraine, we had Ukrainian artists arriving as guests in our home. My point of view after that changed abruptly. I became extremely aware that as I brushed my teeth, wrote thank you notes or planned my day, elsewhere tanks were rolling through villages, destroying people’s lives. The young woman is indifferent as a coping strategy. The dog displays her concerns.
Sale of the first three prints I will give to Ukrainian refugees trying to settle in my town.
