"God's Love Poured Into Our Hearts" 2020, 24 x 5 ft mosaic installation for worship space in St. Louis, Missouri

About the art

Recent works  are mixed media mosaics  made from strips of "palette trash," dried acrylic paint peeled off a plastic palette. I started experimenting with the palette trash a number of years ago. It's just too lovely to throw away. Upping production means making palette trash on purpose, which is really the pineapple upside down cake version of painting. The first couple layers are a sloshy, joyous endeavor with conscious choices in color and mark making. Then I layer up paint to build strength. Scissors, tweezers, glue, wood, ba-bing! Mosaic. And now I want cake.
