Artist's Statement

For decades, I’ve been collecting craft materials that I periodically turn into something awesome. I’ve worked with paper, beads, multi-media collage and assemblage, pen and ink, photography, and fabric. Now, I want to bring it all together into functional and beautiful art, telling stories of moments through my work. My focus is on the stories and feelings we share as we interact with each other and the world around us. Favorite artists: Frida Kahlo, Andy Goldsworthy, Jim Henson, Joseph Cornell, Rachel Mello
