I am delighted that I am now part of a regular feature of the Catholic Artist Connection’s blog: interviews with artists, conducted via an emailed questionnaire. The answers that I submitted — to questions about my ID as a Catholic artist (an artist who is Catholic?), where I find support and fulfillment as an artist, my spiritual practices and more — are here, along with a selection of my paintings:
“The ‘Chi’ of the Tree” (egg tempera, gouache, graphite)
“Spring Time” (watercolor)
“Wild Fire” (watercolor and color pencil)
“What It Sounded Like on Ocean Beach That Day” (ink) (drawn with eyes closed)
“Healing Touch” (egg tempera on watercolor)
“Sursum Corda” (egg tempera over watercolor)
“In the Garden” (watercolor, graphite and ink)

The July/August issue of Spirit & Life, the magazine published by the Benedictine Sisters of Perpetual Adoration in Clyde, MO, contains my story, “My Oldest Friend”. That’s the piece that kicked off this writing blog earlier this year; scroll all the way down to the first entry, March 26. I am delighted and grateful.
“Child’s Play” (chips of egg tempera paint, made from my own chickens’ eggs)
