When the world gets weird, I retreat to my studio, spend time in nature and work it out with paint.

I have become obsessed with light, science and consciousness, pulling on the thread and following it wherever it takes me. I spend a lot of time with my feet in the dirt and my face toward the sun. Gosh, light is so damn mysterious. No wonder our ancestors paid such close attention to it.

I’ve been returning to old photographs, some of which I have lived with for decades. Maybe I’m looking for traces of what they knew as an anchor in such strange times.

PORTFOLIO

West of Lincoln Project

Beautiful work Ruth! It’s so awesome that there are people like you that grew up in Venice and want to help share the history and stories of this place, Venice.

David Fowler

I was going to be raised the Venice way, the same way my uncles were raised. I looked up to them. I was Venice Trece, you know V13. Quote from the West of Lincoln Project.

Leonard Duran

Everybody earns a second chance just like Eddie Hadvina in West of Lincoln Project.

I am touched by your beautiful work on the West of Lincoln Project. You are doing good work in the world, Namaste.

Staci Tye

Participating in BELONGING allowed me to share how I connect children with nature, land, and bring a sense of belonging to a place.
