The “Stolen Moments” collection was created during small pockets of time between the ebbs and flows of life as a creative mother and teacher. Each subject was painted alla prima, or “at first” sight, with details and flourishes added later in layers over time. The final result echoes how we form and retain longterm memories. Abstract details—whether laughter, a scent, a look, taste or sound—preserve the life and color of the lasting impressions which stand out clearly in our minds. Robert Frost once wrote, “Nothing gold can stay.” “So treasure it,” I say.
