After a long hiatus from showing her art, primarily motivated by motherhood and the raising of her two children, she now returns to creating a body of work this time working with the medium of clay. Her work creates an unusual bridge between sculpture, illustration and painting. Often incorporating several different media while blending 2D and 3D elements. “I prefer to work from a stream of consciousness, some what of a meditative state, so that I don't over think or analyze the process and final out come. At some point in the process the work will shift becoming like a mirror reflecting back taking on a life and dimension of its own. It then becomes a delicate balance to allow what is emerging while also maintaining the space as creator and architect. When I am able to reach that ‘place’ of unity between myself andmthe work a quality of timelessness will emerge. These are my favorite moments as an artist and mostly what I am seeking.”
