Strange Things Are Happening

This series began with my visit to Barbara Hepworths studio in St. Ives, England.  A simple iPhone image of her outdoor bedroom “The Room” propelled me to create a series of events that may have taken place in this lovely space.  In reality the images I created were metaphors for things taking place in my own life.  When I spontaneously created the image of her demise (Smoking in Bed), I was not ready to end the story.  So Ms. Hepworth returns to gather her things, put on her dancing shoes and she and another strange thing character try to figure out how to navigate their new world.  This series continued with all the strange things eventually “Putting on an Opera“, “Going for Walks”, “Gathering Treasures” and “Gathering Together” for a party.
