Statement of Work:
I am an artist and quilter. I work with fabric, dyes, paint, beads, glass, natural and found objects. I work intuitively. My ideas come to me in many forms. Many come from dreams and random thoughts about life and my role in the world. I am influenced by the natural world, by the forms and colors I see.
