Floral Erotica

Daily we are exposed to a wide range of colors. Creating my artwork with black and white film has allowed me to interact with the subjects by focusing on textures, shapes, staging plus the application of light to create expressive floral studies. My varied life experiences, including being a member of the LGBTQ+ community and now living as a woman, has influenced my artistic vision. The resulting images can present elements of sensuality, erotica, explicitly or romance. My floral studies are often reflective as a painting and the works of Mapplethorpe, O'Keefe, and Cunningham.
