My paintings and jewelry are created in Crestone, Colorado, where I live in an off-grid, straw bale home with husband Steve and Susie the cat.

My art has evolved over the years from a place of curiosity and playfulness. I like to see what happens when I mix up color, pattern and different mediums in unconventional ways. My work is also a reflection of my personal journey through life and the hidden messages that are always available to us.

The mediums I use include paper, paint, pastel, resin, precious metals, gemstones, fabric and natural materials found in nature.

My wish is that my images will reach out and touch you with feelings of joy, inspiration and lightness.
