This summer I've been working on portraying Cape Cod, trying to avoid the tourist version, but rather the Cape as the unique place it is, while mulling and incorporating the suggestions from the June residency. My mentor suggested looking at William Kentridge and Seurat's charcoal studies, and I find these fascinating. I've been doing charcoal drawings and then following with the painting. In some cases I like the charcoal better than the painting! This painting of Cahoon Hollow was a couple weeks before the parking lot collapsed!

AuthorThis blog began around my journey through the wonderful MFA program at Lesley University College of Art and Design; I graduated in 2019. My work interrogates ideas around place: what makes a place feel like home, what gives comfort or discomfort. I am intrigued by long history of a place and questions of whose footsteps we follow and what can be learned from a place. Archives
