ALTER PIECES This series of works has its inspiration in early Medieval altarpieces. My paintings present a flower rendered in the ancient technique of egg tempera. They are surrounded by bas relief gold structures embossed with evocative words. The words are from an internal dialogue about my existence as a artist.
