In this scented case of mistaken identity and letter writing, two feuding perfume clerks have no idea that they're in love.

Set in a 1930's European perfumery, we meet shop clerks, Amalia and Georg, who, more often than not, don't see eye to eye.

After both respond to a "lonely hearts advertisement" in the newspaper, they now live for the love letters that they exchange, but the identity of their admirers remains unknown.

Join Amalia and Georg to discover the identity of their true loves... and all the twists and turns along the way!

With equal measures of pluck and positivity, little orphan Annie charms everyone’s hearts despite a next-to-nothing start in 1930s New York City. She is determined to find the parents who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City Orphanage that is run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan. With the help of the other girls in the Orphanage, Annie escapes to the wondrous world of NYC. In adventure after fun-filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan’s evil machinations… and even befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt! She finds a new home and family in billionaire, Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary, Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.

Constants explores the shifting balance between what holds steady and what is always in flux. Using a combination of painting and collaged imagery, I reflect on how our lives are shaped by both enduring constants and the ever-changing variables of perception, experience, and the shifting social, political, and natural landscapes we inhabit. These layered mixed-media paintings give form to the complexities inherent in being alive, using a blend of representation and abstraction to explore the tension between the known and the mysterious, the material and the immaterial, and the constant interplay between the everyday and the cosmic.
