I called the exhibition "Springflare" because it sounds like a cross between spring flower and fire. During this especially dark year I entered the studio every day and wanted to ignite the canvas so it would become a blaze of color and energy during this period for potential and change.

Thank you NY Times for the shout out! I was in Copenhagen for a solo show with Christoffer Egelelund Gallery when I received the news and was completely blown away. Gratitude. ❤️

I arrived in Copenhagen a few nights ago and walked past the Galleri Christoffer Egelund where I'll have my opening today. I squealed with delight, peeking through the windows at midnight. No was was around to hear me luckily.
My first stop the next day was the Botanical Gardens. What a delight! I missed it on my last visit to this amazing city. Do you see the butterfly cocoons and the spots of gold on them? In my happy place for sure.
Danes love their bicycles and the water - new floating houses.

I was signing silkscreens at Galleri Christoffer Egelund in beautiful Copenhagen this afternoon. Gratitude and love for this wonderful gallery💙🤍💚♥️
There is much solitude in these works, something meditative. It’s about providing the space that each small thing deserves. Every brush stroke or mark as well as each tiny creature or plant all weigh in and are all equally valuable. There is no hierarchy present in these paintings – for the glowing moon and the most delicate flower are part of the same system of life.

Digital technology makes an appearance in some of the landscapes of "Springflare" my upcoming solo with Galleri Christoffer Egelund, Copenhagen. In The Arrangement, flower vases adorned with retro-digital gaming elements including the “no Internet connection” dinosaur are clustered together in a forest clearing. Someone was there, artfully deposited these mysterious vases, and simply walked away. Incongruous elements pop up in the strangest places, much the way human culture has insinuated itself in the most remote forests.
