Title: Hands for Peace
Media: Mixed/photo, foil, paper, brads

Hands are iconic images of creativity and support.  I entwined multiple images of hands to convey the idea of working together for peace.

I do work on paper, both wall art and book art, showing in galleries and on the web.  Rhythm and textures are the principal elements in my work.  I have done a number of works protesting and anguishing over the war; it’s good to be participating in this affirmative project.
