My art begins with a vision and ends in a story.  Viewed through my eyes, events, places, people and different cultures take on a new perspective. I capture ideas, visions and concepts through the use of fabric, collage, texture, stitching, patterns and color.  Each piece binds these various elements together to create a unique and individual story. 

 

I feel an element of success when the portrayal of the story within the art can be felt by the viewer.  To me every life situation, a beautiful landscape, a religious experience, or a special human relationship can be interpreted as a search for meaning.  I choose to call it “A Search for God”.  My goal is to evoke an emotional response to each individual piece and build appreciation for how this eternal question might be answered.
