CURRENTLY ON VIEW AT THE DE YOUNG MUSEUM SAN FRANCISCO, CA.
De Young Open 2023. Curated selection (See News tab for more info)
Lucia lives on a secret saffron farm in Sweden surrounded by apples, poppies, and mustard. Throughout the darkness of long winters her internal light shines, echoing the candles worn during the St. Lucia festival where saffron buns are shared by all. Her luminous saffron crown tops the portrait with poppy eyes and a soft pink mouth of blooming crocus. Firm apples define her bust veiled only slightly by tender branches and new flowers.
Perfume still in development
Notes: Saffron, Quince Accord, Apple Blossoms, Poppies, Winter Darkness, Candlelight and Reflections.

Very excited to announce “Lucia” - Face #32 from the Dark Lovely series (30”x40” oil on wood) was selected for De Young Open 2023. The exhibit showcases the diversity and breadth of art in the 9 Bay Area counties. It is the first time I have submitted and am very excited to share this special piece with a larger audience. I havent yet developed the scent for this but notes are listed below her origin story:
