"The Red Dress Collection" depicts particular female roles and parts of women's experience or significant moments in time, which, like the dresses can be discarded, leaving the woman intact. The series started over a year ago with "Prom Time" and expanded with "Holiday Ball Time" - the collection is a work in progress with more to come. All works for sale, please contact Artist.

"Torch Time" was inspired by fellow artist's paintings of their daughters - Ken Logue and Brian Smith. "Bridesmaid Time" is a tribute to the grace and poise of differently shaped bridesmaids wearing dresses they would never have chosen for themselves.

'Holiday Ball Time'

Collagraph print 5/20 (image 21" x 14" on paper 30 x 22")

In a Milton Avery like scene, this dress poses elegantly waiting for a partner, waiting for a turn around the floor.

'Bridesmaid Time' (detail)

Collagraph print (image 23" x 16" on paper 30 x 22 ")

The dress awkwardly descends the staircase, conspicuous but proud, waiting for its debut at the head of the Bride's wedding party.

Sexy, slinky, confident, this dress is hyper-ready to belt out a Heart Wrencher. Sleeve is raised, microphone at the ready - waiting for the band to begin.
