This is the final work in my series which I have decided to call “Emerge.” 12″h x 11″w. Dichroic film, painted vellum, plastic table cloth and polyester tulle with light reflective thread. I feel like I am looking within myself to find what is strong and positive in these works.

More progress on “Silent Music”
More progress on “Silent Music”. I am now layering sheets of pieced linear elements and it is starting to wrap around my studio. ๐ Can’t wait to install this at the Evanston Art Center.

Silent Music..
I am surprised by the strong linear elements emerging in this installation and I think it reflects an increasing confidence I feel or perhaps a sense of trust in my direction. This is a 4 foot section of a project that currently measures about 18 feet in length. I am calling it “Silent Music.” Can’t wait to install at the Evanston Art Center in July 2019! Stay tuned!

Saturday morning studio time..
Studio scene this Saturday morning. Lots of thinking and learning on my journey with several projects. Pattern, float, lightness, weight.

Here I am in my favorite place! Lots of color, lots of chaos. Just as it should be. ๐

Smoke dreams..
Here is the 3rd candle smoke and water color painting in my series. It measures 11″ x 14″. I am combining images of coral reef and sea grass with more linear elements as well as the ephemeral presence of smoke which I love because it is unpredictable. ๐

New smoke painting…
Here is a new watercolor and candle smoke painting on paper. It measures 11″ x 14″. The dots emerged and found themselves in the work. #hollywongart #watercolor #worksonpaper #sanfranciscoartist #californiaartist #smokepainting #patternart
Drawing from Ancient Language…
This is a charcoal drawing I made when I was studying the Hebrew alphabet. I unfortunately never learned the language but I developed a love of the shapes of the letters and those of ancient languages in general. The layering of the letters speaks to me of how meaning becomes diffused over time. The work measures 11″ x 14″. #hollywongart #worksonpaper #lostlanguage #sanfranciscoart #californiaart #charcoaldrawing
