Breathing Under Water 1996 Materials:  mixed media on paper            Dimensions:  79” X 96” (6.5 ft. tall, 8 feet wide) Following the sudden death of my sister, drawing was the only way for me to continue with a life. These pieces came out of that time. Light and dark were mixing together; substance and the insubstantial swirled into one thing. Life and death were not separate rooms, but utterly interwoven.
