statement
My process is a mixture of intimate planning and visceral spontaneity. I enjoy oil paint for its vibrant possibilities and sculptural qualities; I enjoy pen and ink for its immediacy and call-back to the trance state of childhood drawing sessions; I enjoy both for their necessary call for patience and total immersion in the tactile realm.
My subject matter often explores ancestral legend, folklore, nature, mysticism, and personal experience. Fascinated by the many roles women take in folklore, I like to examine how storytelling and archetypes can be means of strength and survival. I'm always learning, and I find creating to be an evolving study of the narratives, people, and places around me.
