Creating art is about finding your joy. It is often impossible to restrict it to one medium, although there is always one that we go back to time and again - our first love of art making.

For me, that first love is fiber art. I hand stitch 99% of my work in an effort to leave my mark on everything that I make. I enjoy mixing fiber with other materials, creating a juxtaposition of textures and surfaces.

I also enjoy writing and taking photos. As a result, I'm in my third year of a photo essay called Where I Stand and have just begun a daily photo essay, the 365 Happy Things Project. Both projects help me to slow down and take a closer look at everything in the world around me.

I hope you enjoy your visit and I hope that you find joy in everything that you create.
