I write this in November 2022 as I crawl out of the shell I've been hibernating in. The last few years have been quite a time of changes.  The Covid Pandemic hit and all things seemed to come to a stop. It was a time of incredible fear and great sadness in an ocean of upheaval. My hope is that we are on the path to life again. Maybe just little steps but steps they are! My own little part is to go deeper into my artwork and maybe make beauty shine in the world again. I trust that my art says that to you.


I am just beginning to enter a few art shows and invite folks to my studio. I will update this space as those fabulous things take place!


My Story

Paper Pulp Sculptures

  • I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. I still have my first piece of art, an apple, which I made in kindergarten. The extent of my art education is a year of technical illustration classes. I am primarily a self-taught artist for both 2D and 3D art.
