This room spans work from 1980 to 1998 — paintings, mixed media, and found-object pieces now held in private collections, museums, and university libraries. Some pieces are marked sold or held in permanent collections; one, sadly, was stolen. Dimensions are listed as height × width (× depth for dimensional work) in inches. For questions about provenance or a specific piece, please get in touch.
