Handmade paper + mixed media

9×11 - framed

Value: $250

For me my studio practice is a way of life – art is life and life is art. It is hard work, lyrical play and how I make sense of the world. Mundane domestic moments and nature inspire the work.  Gathered materials from my environment transformed into handmade paper, textiles and mixed media form my vocabulary. Most of my art is autobiographical reflecting interactions with family, and my spiritual connection with nature. Forms of the work range from intimate books to sculptural vessels to large-scale installations.  I want to seduce the viewer to touch the work – to initiate a conversation with a piece and just like getting to know a new friend, learn intimate details as the relationship develops.
