The Ghost With The Most
I have a vivid memory of seeing Beetlejuice in the theater when I was in middle school. The imagery, storyline and overall energy felt like home and it made me more confident in my own tastes. Now, as a middle school art teacher, my classroom is "Beetlejuiced" themed. I made this sgraffito piece for fun and to honor that childhood memory.

For this piece, I cover a pastel drawing in black paint, submerging that original effort in darkness. Once the image is lost, slowly the rediscovery process begins. Scratching away the shadows I begin to reveal complexity, create texture and find a richness that was not possible without darkness. Each of these pieces is a leap of faith, a surrender. This process connects me to eternal emergence. Knowing what could have destroyed us actually gives us access to wholeness. Confrontation with the dark makes the light more powerful. It welcomes us into dynamic balance.
