Regarding Fire
Painting multiple pictures regarding fire has been powerful for me.  The fire theme has become a metaphor reflecting life, safety, damage, and recovery. My fire paintings show enjoyable fire and toy fire trucks; fire safety equipment; several houses damaged by fire, and two houses in stages of repair. I saw hope come out of despair as the houses were reconstructed.  I hope my work “Regarding Fire” would help trauma survivors. I believe it would help conversations.
