Visions of Self is an annual show of work from female artists across the world. It’s hosted by the Women’s Voices, Women’s Vision group of Yosemite Sierra Artists. In our second year, we’re featuring over 100 artists from 14 countries, with work including the subjects of self-portraiture, environment, emotions, and state of being.
Covid Series – Mother and Child
My first painting in a series on the past year and our future was this self portrait. The color and tenor of the world keeps shifting, but we will not be cowed by the unknown. My son and I, we venture on.
I’ve been using color and shape to explore the the rage of women and the environment during a pandemic, racial reckoning, assault on civil and reproductive rights, and climate crisis. This self portrait ignited the series.
