Tears, a series of new works, is a melding of many of the pieces I have created over the years. It’s a distillation of the feelings and frustration we often confront on a daily basis.

I am using my visual voice to express these concerns: gun violence, war, poverty, loss and anxiety. They are overwhelming to consider and there are no easy answer. However tears can be cathartic and cleansing, as well as uplifting. There should be no shame associated with tears on any level. We started our lives with tears and if we allow them to, they will continue to fall until our end.
