Artist’s Statement: "The Covid-19 pandemic engulfed the old normal for many. Staying at home and working on projects is normal for me. Luckily, I can work from the safety of my bubble overlooking paradise in my garden, where butterflies flutter innocently. Paradise Valley contemplates a return to simpler times and is dedicated to all who have suffered or sacrificed."
