Emotions, intellect, and senses all mix with the natural world and continually dictate my themes. Psychologically my pieces are born from the people who enter, stay, and exit. My professional work as a psychotherapist and my art intertwine. My life as a woman, daughter and mother inform my ideas. They sometimes come wrenching out and at other times arrive like a slow welcome wave.

Faces, nails, birds, linen, twine, branches, metal found on the street, beads rolling in and color build metaphors, baskets and send messages.
