Misa's wood work with acrylic accents is an intense study of surface expression. Combining acrylics with the depths of pieces of natural wood, create a three-dimensional canvas.

In many cases, there is a stark contrast between the deep, rich colors of the painting, and the soft strokes of emotion that truly capture the women in her artwork. The mundane and the spiritual do not fight each other. Rather, her art breathes the paradox inherent in all of us; the need to embrace the contradictions of our lives peacefully and serenely. Full of compassion, understanding and acceptance, her wood work is a sweet surrender to these contradictions.

Misa's wood work invites viewers to do their own traveling and collect their own thoughts...they are feelings you felt...maybe did... sometime...once a long time ago...or maybe will...very soon...
