Alligator Allchemy

Alligator Allchemy

72″ x 36″ chalk on paper

This image was created one summer day on the back of a large scroll of paper flattened and taped to the floor of my garage. Art for me is an attempt to make the invisible experiences of life visible. And so even as I grasp for the formless in this image, I am swallowed up by the sharp realities of the manifest world and its raw force. In this fluid exchange I must both surrender to and direct the flow of creation. This is how I work as artist, therapist, and woman.
