"Your work is to discover your work--and then with all your heart to give yourself to it." (Buddha)
 


 


Welcome

My work explores the simbiotic meeting of elements such as fiber and paint, thread and brushstrokes. It is a constant search for the point where mixed media melds into objects that transcend traditional ideas of quilting and fine art or craft.

I often turn to the tradition of painting and drawing as a way to develop my ideas. My use of color is usually vibrant and bold. Natural elements inspire my work and I find that the patterns and colors in the world around me provide a wealth of ideas for expression. The objects I create reflect on the world as I experience it - alive and vibrant with an ever changing juxtaposition between the natural and the manmade. They are a vehicle for the viewer to see the world through my eyes.
