  1. Haunting. I just saw one of the pieces (the ocean one) in an ArtNews or Art in America Ad for one of her shows. Something at once otherwordly, other timely...yet apocalyptic or elegiac. Very Beautiful Thanks Lorraine!

  2. thanks for commenting, christine. post-apocolyptic is a good word for them, yet there is something so peaceful as well.

  3. When I have a moment I will do some investigating as to where the work is shown. Would really like to see it in person.
