This time was marked by debilitating health issues and diminishing ability to work due to heavy metal poisoning. My life was spent managing pain, going to doctors and praying. I had always relied on a spiritual focus to navigate life but this experience pushed me to the very edge.

My art materials and size of my work shifted to accommodate my limited physical abilities. The color drained out of the majority of my art. The Codices of Mexico, which I have always been drawn to, also opened up to me in a unique way. They created a vocabulary for sacrifice, different dimensions of reality, our connection to different energies, aspects of soul-lesson, karma, acceptance, pain and much more.

This time was also marked by my becoming a co-parent and wanting to resolve my own past childhood haunts so as to not pass them on to my daughter.
