About The Artist
I’m holding my Open Studio IN PERSON inside at my home studio this year. Come and enjoy a walk through my pollinator’s garden.
I am inspired by using a variety of media to express statements about the rhythms and cycles of living. The creative nature of the universe excites me and I filter this through my lens of female experience. I started working with pine needles in 1996, a direct result of living under some messy long needled pine trees, and added ceramic back into my mix of media in 2001, as a way to personally heal after the violence of 9/11. A chance encounter with two large jack rabbits in my front garden started me on a two year path of sculpting life size hares. Since August, 2019, I have been incorporating these hares into a series of bas relief sculptures of the Major Arcana of my own imagined tarot deck. This helped me ride out the pandemic wave.
This year I have been experimenting with nerikomi porcelain: hand tinted porcelain clay made into patterns, which are then made into sculpture.
