Myths skillfully weave words to create worlds to answer the questions of life.

Like myths, I want my art to not only answer questions but to also create questions.

Stories seep and soak into my art.

Little snippets of the world and small moments of my life, traveling from memories to the art I create.

Carrying the genetic code of my Mom, I have received the artist gift that travelled through the many artist generations of her family to me.

The journey of my life and theirs has informed the art I create.

I want to sculpt tangible pieces of stories that transcend my life and touch a memory, feeling or story that we might share together.

My art pieces are proof of the process I undertake in the creation.
