Right: Lost City, ©2018, watercolor and acrylic on vintage Arches cold pressed paper attached to a cradled birch panel with a hand-painted edge patina, 28 x 28.  Inspired by the Thomas Moran sketch, Vanessa established the theme and composition with a drawing and watercolor underpainting, which I embellished futher with acrylic paint. This was our first major collaboration. Lost City is available as a 16 x 16 fine art print.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Velvet D’Arrest ©2025, 20 x 30 x 2 paper collage on a pigment ink jet print on canvas from a gouache painting. This work was created in part for Vermont Vice: Sex, Drugs, Money, and Murder, an exhibit now on view at the Bennington Museum. “While Vermont is often imagined as an idyllic rural paradise, largely free from the darker elements of humanity, anyone who lives here or knows its history understands this isn’t true. The state has long shared the darker issues found anywhere humans settle—from counterfeiters, rum runners, and drug dealers to girlie shows, illicit gambling, and even murder.” About this piece, Vanessa writes: “I wanted to marry his exquisite use of color and movement with collaged moments inspired by the exhibition statement, so that it feels rooted in Vermont’s pastoral landscape yet charged with a contemporary energy that reflects what it feels like to be alive right now.” Available at Krinshaw Studios.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>THE PAST, ©2023, 30 x 24 paper collage and oil on archival inkjet on canvas. Inspired by the love of wide open vistas and the look of certain buttes in the American Southwest. Vanessa created a narrative suggesting the transition from a previous history into the beginning of a new time with new possibilities. The hands are cradling peyote, a symbol of the transformative power of sacred lands. Vanessa often incorporates the black and white images of Diane Arbus in her pieces, finding them to be powerful and moving: “I’m particularly drawn to how she would document the celebrations of folks on the fringes of society- for instance a birthday party at an asylum. After all, everyone has the right to celebrate”. Available at Krinshaw Studios.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Velvet D’Arrest ©2025, 20 x 30 x 2 paper collage on a pigment ink jet print on canvas from a gouache painting. This work was created in part for Vermont Vice: Sex, Drugs, Money, and Murder, an exhibit now on view at the Bennington Museum. “While Vermont is often imagined as an idyllic rural paradise, largely free from the darker elements of humanity, anyone who lives here or knows its history understands this isn’t true. The state has long shared the darker issues found anywhere humans settle—from counterfeiters, rum runners, and drug dealers to girlie shows, illicit gambling, and even murder.” About this piece, Vanessa writes: “I wanted to marry his exquisite use of color and movement with collaged moments inspired by the exhibition statement, so that it feels rooted in Vermont’s pastoral landscape yet charged with a contemporary energy that reflects what it feels like to be alive right now.” Available at Krinshaw Studios.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>THE PAST ©2023, 30 x24 paper collage on a pigment ink jet print on canvas from a gouache painting, $1800. This work began with a large gouache. For us, the wide open vistas of the American West invite reflection and symbolize the passage of time, of eons bygone. In Vanessa’s narrative in cut paper collage, this work celebrates the transition from the past into a new beginning, with new possibilities. Her use of the black and white ‘ritual’ images of Diane Arbus enhances the contrast of the timeless and transitory in this work. “I’m particularly drawn to how she would document the celebrations of folks on the fringes of society- for instance a birthday party at an asylum. After all, everyone has the right to celebrate” The hands cradle peyote, a symbol of the magic in transformation, the hidden sacred power in this magical existence. Available at Krinshaw Studios.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I grew up surrounded by nature, immersed and enthralled by the beauty of it all. My mother gave me her love of God and birds and watercolors. I began to paint as a celebration, to say thank you for this joy, this Heaven on earth. Painting inspires and restores my spirit. I want to share this transformation- this renewed sense of connection. I aim to suggest both the reality and the hidden energy of things, to see nature in new ways, as if for the first time.

      <image:caption>I often begin with lots of quick sketches on paper, exploring ideas and focusing on weaving visible form and hidden forces and movement together. This helps to liberate my imagination, to visualize the inner substance of things, and generate compositions. I want to imitate this spontaneity, this freedom of movement, in more elaborate paintings.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Sometimes I use traditional and digital media together to create unique works such as Prayer, which combines watercolor, photography, and digital painting. Other examples include Redux and Lost City; the version above is on textured watercolor paper, enhanced with acrylic mediums, and attached to a wood panel frame with painted edges. A custom-made wood frame completes the ensemble. Customized works like this are available upon request.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>THE PAST ©2023 collaboration with Vermont artist Vanessa Compton, 30 x24 paper collage on a pigment ink jet print on canvas from a gouache painting, For us, the wide open vistas of the American West invite reflection and symbolize the passage of time, of eons gone by. Vanessa’s narrative in cut paper collage celebrates the transition from the past into a new beginning, with new possibilities. Her use of the black and white ‘ritual’ images of Diane Arbus enhances the contrast of the timeless and transitory in this work. “I’m particularly drawn to how she would document the celebrations of folks on the fringes of society- for instance a birthday party at an asylum. After all, everyone has the right to celebrate” The hands cradle peyote, a symbol of the magic in transformation, the hidden sacred power in this magical existence. $1800.  Available at Krinshaw Studios.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Velvet D’Arrest ©2025, 20 x 30 x 2 paper collage on a pigment ink jet print on canvas from a gouache painting. This collaboration with master collage artist Vanessa Compton was created in part for Vermont Vice: Sex, Drugs, Money, and Murder, an exhibit now on view at the Bennington Museum. “While Vermont is often imagined as an idyllic rural paradise, largely free from the darker elements of humanity, anyone who lives here or knows its history understands this isn’t true. The state has long shared the darker issues found anywhere humans settle—from counterfeiters, rum runners, and drug dealers to girlie shows, illicit gambling, and even murder.” About this piece, Vanessa writes: “I wanted to marry his exquisite use of color and movement with collaged moments inspired by the exhibition statement, so that it feels rooted in Vermont’s pastoral landscape yet charged with a contemporary energy that reflects what it feels like to be alive right now.” Velvet D’Arrest 20 x 30 Mixed Media Painting</image:caption>
