info         My work has evolved from a life-long love for, fascination with, and sense of reverence for the human form. After years of working in a slow, layered and meticulous way with colored pencil, I have broken out into a medium and an approach that more immediately and deftly express what I am really after: a sense of life force and the particularity of a living moment. This change in my work has required a huge leap of faith and reflects larger changes in my life. Arlene is a member of Red Umbrellas, and exhibits her work in public spaces around San Francisco.
