Surprise.
Nature has taught us how interesting it can be to discover concealed beauty. Under a rock, fathoms deep, beneath its protection, encrusted in earth or swaddled in petals, hidden treasures surround us everywhere.

It’s my observation that viewers feel a compulsion to connect the two halves of each piece. That is the first thing that people want to do with them.

I am humbled and proud to announce that this piece - “Hidden Beauty” - was awarded the Best of Show from Grey Cube Gallery for their July 2021 show Patterns.
