Ideas behind my new artwork

The idea behind my new work has been more biological in nature. I have become extremely fascinated in the biological systems of man, animals and underwater species. Rather than take these systems as a precise interpretation I add the human element of emotion. My drawings subconsciously took on these interpretations after all of my recent illnesses and devastating infertility. I began reading all the materials, books, leaflets, and internet information that I could and realized during this exploration just how amazing our biological systems are in the human body. The cellular and biological images that I became so familiar with began to take over my mind both consciously and subconsciously. I began to associate my feelings and emotions with these biological images. Before I knew it these images had taken over my mind and became a serious part of my continuing exploration of self. Some of my works are purely emotional in nature while others take on the similar cellular images but emphasize design and color combinations. Sometimes my images speak for themselves while others open up the door for viewer interpretation.
