The 18 selections are from the following series:


Offerings and Attributes
The large scale painting Reconciliation of the Two Marys, illustrates a schism that has pervaded the psyche of women, which the artist takes up using biblical icons and pulling them into the present. In essence marrying the two Marys.

Bride of Epimetheus
Invokes the mythic inversion of Pandora and is imbued with the correct etymology as "all-giving" and her alternate name of Anesidora; (an epithet reserved for Gaea) which means "she who sends up gifts." This then allows the suggestion that she embodied the fertility of the Earth and its capacity to bear fruits for the benefit, rather than punishment of humankind.

The Hidden
Divided into 3 groups: The Crusades, The Dark Ages, and The Inquisition. They confront Christianity's history with a frantic and urgent hand.
