About Me

I work primarily in mixed media, using ink, watercolor, fabric, and paper scraps to create layered images that explore how literature, folklore, and history help us understand our own lived experience.

As a community-taught artist who has acquired skills from library books, internet videos, and local classes, I believe strongly that making art is for people of every age and capacity, not just for specialists with art degrees. Because I often spend long hours laboring over a piece that others may never see, I seek out opportunities to explore art alongside my own children and students.

Recently, I’ve been using recycled fabric and paper materials to start exploring stop-motion animation and puppetry and I’m excited about the ways my art practice will continue to grow and change.
