"Wandering Gypsy Soul"

16" x 20"

 This was my first acrylic painting and the inspiration for the name of my gallery! I painted this while living in Tyler, TX... just outside of Dallas. I have lived in so many cities and states... wandered from place to place since I was an infant... the woman in the painting is a cross between Jani Joplin and myself.

"Hush Little One"

24"x30" 

"Hush Little One" is based on my thoughts and feelings about the genocide in the Sudan and Darfur regions. I have spent many years teaching and taking care of small children, when I first learned about the conflict my thoughts immediately ran to them.. the innocent babies witnessing such pain.

A portion of the sale of this painting will be donated to Doctors without Borders, a group working in the Sudan/Darfur areas administering life saving aid.

"Mother Earth"

24" x 30"

This is the second in my series of paintings inspired by the events in the Sudan/Darfur areas. The colors of the mother represent earth and water, she looks onto the events sullenly, as she has seen them before. Her son, wearing the color of new life, looks on in shock... he is new to the violence that he witnesses.

A  portion of the proceeds of this painting will be donated to Doctors Without Borders who are working in the Sudan/Darfur areas administering live saving aid.
