Fiber arts,  Sugar Grove PA
I am a multimedia artist with a recent concentration in fiber art. With a focus on nature and wildlife animals, my work ranges from the realistic and lifelike to the abstract and whimsical. I enjoy the tactile qualities of my work and am often amazed at the almost magical transformation of the raw materials from a fluid state into something more enduring and solid.
I prefer a neutral, muted palette for many of my pieces, but take the leap into vivid colors on occasion, delighting even myself. I am content to retain the spirit of play and joy in my pieces, hoping to bring a smile to the face of all those who see it.
