I work in a hybrid medium of painting, embroidery and beadwork combining the authority of painting and the articulation of drawing in the form of densely detailed abstractions. These highly imaginative vignettes use expressive color and pattern as subtext in the unfolding play of order and chaos. My current body of work, Surface Tension explores the nature of time, beauty and groundlessness.
