ABOUT ME

Every art project that I create has a memory and a story.  

 

As an artist I am a keeper and collector of various materials and objects, found or recycled, that

often provide inspiration and ideas for my work. I welcome these elements into my creative process and by doing so, I feel a deep connection with my own experiences and often with the experiences of others. 

 

Each time I integrate wool from an old sweater or add dry flowers from the garden, an old story continues to live by becoming a part of something new and different.  

 

Nature is another important source of inspiration for me. I am grateful for the beauty and power of nature that is a constant gift of energy, nurture and support. 

 

I hope you enjoy visiting my page. Feel free to reach out.
