About

I make mixed media books. I also paint with a variety of materials: encaustic, gouache and ink made from foraged plants. My collages are primarily composed of fragments of my own paintings and scraps of ephemera. In addition to visual arts, I write prose. My art tends toward the poetic and my writing is visual. This marriage of mediums is a pretty happy one! I am interested in the layering of texture, color, language and insight. Arranging and rearranging these elements gives me solace and stirs my curiosity in both the small sphere of my studio and the very large world beyond.

My work is in numerous private and public collections around the country including The Getty Center for the History of Art and the Humanities, Stanford University, Princeton University, Smith College, Baylor University, and The University of Vermont.
