the artist

She makes art out of everything even living. The head goes constantly creating something out of nothing all day long and draggged along by desire, excitement. tree-dances outside her window music makes them better. she's a musician, movement in nature means that landscapes have to move..i.e. be abstract and yet decernable as trees and water and mountains and above all light. she doesn't wear hats but a long dark pigtail -- which sometimes driops into the paint or flops across her guitar. Shes older now, but that just intensifies the spiritual involvement in live and it's translation into paintings, clay, or music or poetry. According to one sh'es "a creative explosion" yes indeed -- all over the place

the art

Art as traditionally implied is in all graphic media, currently an interest in Macintosh computer generated art...which leads to a question. How to send images over the internet. Previously raised on classic piano --brouse the music world, any world and improvise. Taught folk guitar for 9 years, not playing so much now (arthritisWrite when there's something to say and enjoy it, but not for its own sake..believe there should be a reason to sound off. As to nature --beautiful just the way she is. I paint/write/feel about her that she's something to be experienced and enjoyed, so the art is ABOUT rather than OF.

the beret

the artist loves hats on other people but refuses to be defined by any single one and can't keep even a virtual hat on. there for a "no-hat" hair is enough thankyou going from pigtail to knot to slopping in the eyes. I laove this -- so open, so stimulating. I just feel frustrated about my technical limitations. I'd like to be able to send my images around the world and am willing to submit them if someone can tell me how. I have a Mac 7100, one of the first power macs with 40 ram and 2.1 gigs harddrive. My server info is probably included here somewhere but it's in California at Telis, a subsidiary of MCI. I haven't figured out how to send an attachment yet, but my rasterized images can be saved in JPeg if that helps. This is great I hope it works out. Regards claire
