Ink Wash Portraits




Gender-full, not genderless, imagine a face not defined by gender but by its spirit alone, a multiplicity of expression without the confines or constrictions based on our society's prejudices of a person's sex. These most recent pieces are the beginning of the series In the Grey, of androgynous portraits where I construct ambiguous gender attributes of each face while expressing the essence in each visage. My intent is to not only allow but celebrate the human spirit beyond gender roles, and express in a physical form the many spiritual paths and teachers that espouse the divinity of androgyny.
