Artist's Statement
My work is the way I express my thoughts and feelings about my life, relationships, and the world. I use multiple techniques to express an idea. Most of the time it is through dyeing and painting white fabric, then drawing with a modern sewing machine. They are hung on the wall.
Whenever possible, I exhibit the work to communicate with others. It is available for sale.
