About this artwork

This was a piece that came quickly and spontaneously. It was meant as a portrait of the painter Romaine Brooks and the sad fact that she once ate sulphur matches in an attempt to harm herself, however I think it came out more shining and hopeful. Today I was thinking of renaming it 1000 Flames for Kamala!

I studied at the San Francisco Art Institute, and received my Master of Fine Arts from the School of Visual Arts in New York City. For the past 12 years I have been making unconventional portraits of women artists, writers, performers and impresarios working, living and loving in the early 20th Century.
