This is an abstract work using vitreous enamel (finely powdered glass) fused to steel through kiln firing.

Lady Justice holds her scales, and while she cannot see our faces, she wields her sword to protect the very foundation of our society.

She isn’t there just for one person, she is there for all of us -- regardless of our backgrounds. And while she is most often pictured outside a court of law; Justice wants a just society -- where we can all lead fulfilling lives without fear of harassment, violence, hunger, or homelessness. She stands for social justice -- a just society -- in addition to a just legal system.

I am a Cincinnati, Ohio based artist. I work in vitreous enamel, painting, and photography. My art is improvisational. Like jazz music, it requires expertise but also fluidity and experimentation. And as a feminist who believes, following Audre Lorde, that Poetry is not a Luxury, I see artistic self-expression as a way to be human and whole. Creating works of art and photography offers me an opportunity to give shape to my place in the world. The work I do is quite diverse as my interests are diverse. My art has been exhibited in several juried exhibits in museums and galleries around the country.
