I’m surrounded by my work daily. I cannot escape it and that’s probably a good thing for an artist. It forces me to examine and contemplate my creations. This is a moment in my front gallery studio where my reverse painted glass chandelier bowls reflect off my baby grand.

The chandelier bowl in the foreground is my newest piece and it’s inspired by the desert. In a way, this one shot summarizes a lot of what I hold dear: my paintings, my painted chandeliers, music and my love for tropical flowers and jungle foliage. The banana is artificial but we do have several live bananas surrounding the property!
