I am an installation artist, painter, and sculptor. My work is about exposing and creating personal introspection. I work with mixed media especially found objects, antique woods and organic materials such as grasses, reeds, and red-twig willow. My recent work attempts to more fully expose process by juxtaposing found objects and raw materials with images drawn or painted.


Installation art requires fluency in a wide range of mediums and techniques. My work is created individually for each gallery or exhibition becoming site-specific installation. I thrive on the challenge of the unknown that is presented to me in each location. I "feel" the space and attempt to create a cohesive work of art that combines all the aspects of the environment including its history, lighting, mood, and location with my own artistic and personal interests.
