ABOUT

​

As an artist and an art educator, I like to use experimentation as a starting point. I create my own fabrics using an exploration of mark making and layering techniques. My process developed as I investigated materials, combining fabric paint, thickened dyes, and resists, with traditional printmaking techniques. My photographs of the natural and built environment often serve as the inspiration for my work.
