Artist's Statement
Throughout the years, I’ve explored new ways to express myself through my art. Now I’m using many of the techniques I always loved, but I’m combining them to make more complex pieces, using ink, paper, pastels and embroidery thread.
There is nothing like the tactile feel and rhythm of creating a piece of art and watching it take form. I incorporate beading and color to add luster and texture to the fiber work, and for the works on paper, I’m adding pastels and threads; all of which allows me a multitude of possibilities.
My inspirations range from the colors found in nature to the beaded detail work on a couture gown. On the most personal level, art gives me a chance to immerse myself in a peaceful, private meditative process.
