presented by
Caladan Gallery

On-line posting of this exhibition was April 10 - May 9, 2011.
This exhibition is now available for viewing as an archive.

Caladan Gallery critique: "Whether or not the artist intended to construct actual layers in her work, there are, by the manner of energetic and spontaneous workmanship, layers upon layers of interaction of color and form. The motion of energy reveals the nature of these individual layers; as one alits, the rest follow. These works are as a flock of birds, as one form or group of forms seem to guide the direction of the surface. The trail of following forms seems infinite."
