    Description

    This acrylic painting is part of my Ad Series, a body of work that utilizes the mid-century advertising aesthetic to address the social and political issues faced by those who work in the arts. This painting is a parody of an old World War II-era poster warning soldiers of prostitutes, and has been altered to warn the public about the dangers of associating with "liberals," "artists," "Darwinists," and "secularists." Acrylic paint and bright red accents have been applied to bring this 1940s design into the mid-century era, along with a hard-edge style of painting prevalent in the 1960s.

    Concept

    I create acrylic paintings, mixed media pieces, and prints that incorporate pops of vivid color that leap off the surface, and a dark nostalgia for decades past that were not as glorious in hindsight. Whether addressing social issues or channeling the other half of myself that survives on guitars and record shops, a strong undercurrent of feminism weaves through my work.

    My love of text and dark sense of humor allow me to present difficult subjects in a palatable manner, sparking conversation and bringing a sense of lightness to the exhibition space. I am particularly drawn to the plastic quality and bright hues of acrylic paint, and I find there is nothing more cathartic than the creation of a smooth, flat surface that lacks the visible brush strokes normally seen in other types of painting.
