I am a studio artist living in Richmond, Virginia. I have always been a maker. My early career was as a graphic artist, moving to fiber arts about 10 years ago. Along the way working as a silversmith and beader, relishing the freedom to explore techniques, media, textures and colors. I incorporate hand felting, bead weaving, wirework and fine silver. Over time I have focused on making decorative objects, favoring color and playfulness in my creations. I make small vessels and sculptural pieces, some with armatures that allow me to work larger. I continue to meld felt, beads, and other materials in new ways.
Happily driven to refine my skills and explore new media and techniques, I continue to study with nationally and internationally acclaimed fiber and mixed media artists.
