As a native plant gardener, the natural world is phenomenal and so much of the man-made world - our architecture, our cities - are stunning accomplishments. They exist hand in hand in both beautiful expressions and sometimes disastrous manifestations. Our entire existence with the natural and the invented is intertwined – each dependent on the other, even as my art evolves, each breathing in the wake of the other. As a mixed media artist - textile, paper, printmaker - various substrates and mediums - surface design is one aspect of the process that I love.

I become focused on whatever piece I'm working on and follow my muse to find my way.
