Summer Pleasures |
Sometimes I paint to create a mysterious mood, to tell stories of time, place, myth, experience, and sometimes I paint to capture just what is in front of me. I believe that the separation of fine art, illustration, and crafts into divisions is arbitrary. I work in many ways and mediums depending on my purpose and mood, and sometimes I combine them all.
My work begins with some natural forces and a need to communicate. My influences have been: the natural world, the medieval world of asceticism, and flat pattern, high colors, design and symbols. Education: University of Connecticut, Storrs; further classes at the Kansas City Art Institute, KC, MO; and the Hill Institute, Florence, MA. Contact Sally Sargent Markey: |

Seat of Power |
Centered in spirituality, I create work that seeks out the connections to and lessons from my past. By mixing symbols and meaning, by affirming the potency of the spirits, by honoring the holy, I extend an invitation to contemplate the significance and depth of the power within. Currently, I am working in and across the medium of painting, photography, and video to find those intersections and crossroads where the spirits dwell. In so doing, I hope to further understand and establish a relationship with that that has gone before me.

My work has evolved from relatively objective color images and black and white infrared images of Italy and France in 1988 to a series of self-portraits, mostly black and white infrared, showing my journey through cancer and chemotherapy. I used those images as the basis for a book (About My Hair : A Journey to Recovery, published in 2002) and have recently evolved the book into a foundation encouraging and helping women artists with cancer. My most recent work is once again focused in Italy and is composed of images taken since 2001. Most are color infrared as well as black and white infrared images taken in response to a new book I am writing. I have printed the black and white in more conventional 20 x 24 format and the newest are color infrared in extra large-format |
