My background is in both art and architecture. Earlier work, such as the Warroad Library, are site specific public art pieces, done through Pegusus Studio, Inc. They are leaded and beveled handblown art glass.
Recent works are intended more for gallery display. They include plein air oil paintings and fibre art: knit “vestments,” to be worn or hung as tapestries, made from cotton, silk, bamboo, linen and wool yarns. These works were part of “e-qui-nox,” an exhibition at ArtReach St. Croix in August-September 2017.

All are inspired by continued exploration of the relationship between the individual and the environment: earth, water, and sky as felt and understood by the human being.
