"What I enjoy most about creating art is that it is a continual process of discovery - with me as explorer. Often, the original inspiration takes on a life of its own, and the end result is a surprise. This is what keeps art interesting and a challenge. It is fascinating to explore new techniques and materials and to watch as an idea takes shape and is refined."

"I've worked extensively with textile paints, watercolor, and acrylics. Much of my inspiration comes from spending time at the ocean and from observing the detail and perfection of nature. I'm particularly interested in functional art forms, so creating jewelry designs has opened up an exciting new avenue of expression for my work."
