I want to welcome you to my site. Please browse around, enjoy the gallery pages and read about the classes I have to offer. I am passionate about my art and my teaching. I enjoy sharing my work and my knowledge with others.

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.

I enjoy sharing this vision through my work and the classes I teach to adults and children. Join me on my creative adventures by following me on Facebook. All are welcome!
