Artist Statement
Nature and art do similar things for me. Both bring me into the present moment. I love the process of creating with my hands which I find to be my best meditation.
I am an adventurer, captivated by the beauty of nature, and always by the Light. Whenever I can, I forage for materials to use in my mosaic work. I love finding slate, stone, bark, pebbles, and other treasures outdoors. I also have an interest in reusing materials that have a previous life, and often use ceramic, glass, or rusty bits alongside precious materials like smalti (a handmade opaque glass).
I love to create texture and tell a story with the materials I use. I hope my work invites you to pause and linger, to connect with something deeper. Please visit me website to see my work.
I'd love to hear from you. I welcome comments, questions, and inquiries about making a purchase. I live in Takoma Park, Maryland and welcome studio visits by appointment.
Available for commissions.
