Feedback about this series from an audience member at an artist talk:
"You
gave us a brave presentation of your recent life journey though the
self-portraits that you displayed. The images were more expressive of
feelings than words could ever be. I could see myself & my journey
in the single self-images that you showed before you added to them.
Every emotion that I felt was right there on the screen. Then
when you added the additional layers to your single image I could
travel through the feelings being expressed. Life changes are
challenging to the very depth of our resilience. Your sharing of these
sequences allowed me to know that other people have the same emotional
travel that I have had."
