I am drawn to textures found in the natural world. My art aims to remind the onlooker that there is more to see than a quick passing glance. I love when people stop and contemplate my work, getting closer to see what I’ve created. If my art makes someone stop for a few moments, then I have achieved my goal. Then maybe on their next walk, or trip to the park, or even sitting in their backyard, they will see the variety and complexity of what live around them.

I create microcosms with fabric and thread. I have recreate trees with life like branches and bark, lichen and moss, and individual gardens of mushrooms that stand alone to celebrate and remind us of the tiny wonders outside our door.
