While painting this series, I worked as a domestic violence counselor. When I began painting, we were months into the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. As we were required to shelter in place, people surviving abuse at home were confined, trapped. My day-to-day involved hearing the most intimate, tragic, courageous moments of people’s lives. Most of this work I did while sheltering inside my own home.  After work, I took long walks with my painting kit and wondered about the complexity contained within each of the homes I'd pass.
