About
| Mixed media art quilts enable me to express the tranquility I
experience in nature and the amazement I feel at the complexities of
relationships and the cycles of life. Cherishing the "Why?" of
childhood, I allow curiosity to influence my work as I intuitively
create with a diverse palette of materials. My challenge is to translate images and concepts into a visual representation that others can instinctively understand. My reward is having a person tell me that my art has touched their heart or soul. |
