As a balance to my weekly cartoon strip for “Six Chix”, I like to paint landscapes. For the landscapes, I use the water based medium called gouache, and for the cartoons, I use a combination of pen and ink and a digital tablet and stylus. As a cartoonist, I’m inspired by human nature, especially as […]
SATURDAY only My paintings and multi-media collage are born of curiosity about the world traveled, coupled with the world I can create. Besides responding to architecture, I am also responding to my relationship to my near daily commute into Grand Central Terminal. New York’s architecture provokes and induces thought; emotions are aroused by looming buildings, […]

The Communist era during which I grew up squeezed an imprint on me, a method of perceiving and living in the surrounding world, which in turn defined a method of creating. Getting involved in the New York art scene in 1988 “opened a window” in my soul. My first solo show in New York was […]

There is a particular aspect of drawing that I find especially gratifying – it’s the capacity to produce an image that seems to be spontaneously executed . While a painting is a summing up, an accumulation of many small steps resulting in a conclusion, a drawing gives the impression of the artist’s thoughts, manifesting themselves […]
While I have been focused on my book, “The Migraine Book: A Memoir in Pictures” in recent years, this year I’ve chosen to feature another genre that I have worked in most of my life: abstraction.

Folded paper and mosaic are, at first glance, quite distinct media. Yet they both play with pattern and repetition, geometry and rhythm. Pieces come together to create a puzzle, often unexpectedly. Light and shadow interact to create a deeper, more complex image. My work in paper and mosaic is mathematical and meditative, feeding needs that […]
As an artist, I’ve always found myself split between two disciplines: photography and mixed media. My photographic images reflect what I see in the world around me. They are my eye looking outward. My mixed media work, on the other hand, is my eye looking inward. In my photographic work, I look for compositional elements of […]

My work explores dreams, memories and the passage of time using found images and thin transparent layers of acrylic paint.

These days I’m mostly working among three related currents. Square watercolor “tile” mosaic – which sometimes feel like scapes (land, sea, sky). I think of these as being “about” my appreciation and love of color and material (water color/pigment, paper, brushes, marks); they are also an attempt to address and involve negative space, with light […]

The process has evolved into acetylene and electric welded constructions. I still choose to use discarded mechanical artifacts because I find them singularly precious and beautiful. Though I’ve lived in […]
