I believe creativity is a process that requires a knowledge of physical materials that is gained through a slow attention to practice plus a good deal of play and experimentation.
I explore art using traditional materials on paper and with fibers and textiles. Sometimes I digitize my work using Adobe Photoshop. Sometimes I sell what I make.




Digital Repeat Patterns




Most of my inspiration comes from walking in gardens, museums, and shorelines. I hold degrees in history and graphic design, and I love to the explore the stories that live in art works made with human hands.
When I’m not in the studio, I may be in the library with a book and a cup of tea, or I may be in the garden fussing over the flowers. My gardening goal is to have as many daffodils in my yard as possible.
Please contact me with any inquiries about my work.
