I am moved by the wonders of the natural world. I create both abstract and representational work. Having a background in the natural sciences has always caused me to look at things from that angle. Why do the birds act as a group? How is the mountain formed? What causes the orange crusty stuff? I am constantly imagining how I would reflect their beauty in my art.
I use machine piecing, both from designs drawn on stabilizer as well as improvisational piecing to capture the feeling of a place or event. The tactile nature of fabric and thread serves both spirit and concept.
