Artist Statement:
I am a fiber artist and a painter. In college I majored in art, with a ceramic emphasis. I received my BA and MA in art and went to work. I started my teaching experience in high school, then middle and elementary. I Finished my high school teaching at River Ridge in Lacey.
2016 I began working with mixed media. The movement of the inks and how they combine and collide with each other is exciting. The addition of gold leaf and foils adds a bit of elegance. The abstract forms are simple and serene. Recently I am adding more color and layers for depth and cutting up some paintings and rearranging into new works.
I also design fabric wall art. I have quilted for about 30 years.
