Queen of Hearts '92
18"x24"
Original (framed): $950

An image that explores defining the terms of personal power, sexuality, social status, and self-love.

First time I began using grid patterns in my work, and integrating what unintentionally began to look like digital imaging;  This is also a nod to a deck of cards and the art-historical tradition of artists designing tarot decks.  Also the first use of gravestone rubbings, after Max Ernst."

The series "Self Portraits in Reds" explores the relationship of personal existence to the color red and explores the various meanings attached to the color red in our culture. Red is often interpreted as a color of anger and violence. This is a re-interpretation of meaning: Red as passion, as spirituality, as love, as personal power, as blood, and as a life-giving-force.
