ARTIST'S PROOF

An Artist's Proof is a completely unique work.

It begins where the linen edition begins — the same foundation image, the same Belgian linen, the same translucent layers and pearlescent light and textile collage and marks made by hand.

And then it takes flight on its own.

What happens next follows my creative process completely. No expectations carried in from yesterday. No predetermined destination. Only presence — to what the work wants to say today, in this moment, newly, for the first time.

Like a fledgling winging it when her life depends on her fully expressing all there is to say in the one precious moment she speaks.

Something new. Something experimental. Something open.

That is what an Artist's Proof is.

That is what yours will be.

The Remarque

Every Artist's Proof carries something that belongs to yours alone.

It springs from the essence of our conversation and from whatever moves through me in the making. It may arrive as a haiku embedded within the surface of the work. It may be revealed in the title. It may be woven so quietly into the making that only the Certificate of Authenticity will fully name what it holds and why.

And sometimes it arrives as something else entirely. Something that comes through me before I understand it myself — before I know what it means or what it signifies.

I pass it on in faith.

The Conversation

Before the making begins, we speak.

Not a consultation. Not a brief. A conversation between two friends — unhurried, open, with nothing to prepare and nothing to perform.

Relax and enjoy the creative adventure. That is all that is asked of you.

The Images

All ten foundation images are available as Artist's Proofs. Each image is limited to five proofs across both sizes. Once they are gone, they are gone.

[The ten images are shown here with their titles — each linked to a larger view.]
