ABOUT THE ARTIST

Creating movement, dimension and transparency using vibrant color is the intention of my work. Learning to oil paint by watching Bob Ross on PBS, led to formal classroom instruction in watercolors, mixed media collage, and acrylics. The opportunity and experience of taking a 2-week workshop at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts in Maine introduced me to painting on fabric, learning to sew, and later, quilt.  By exploring the cloth structure in its simplest form, I also have acquired skills in crochet, spinning, and weaving.
