I am a self-taught artist who works primarily in salvaged materials that can be found in nature, such as leaves, leaf galls, driftwood, sticks, stones, bones, gourds, shells and sea glass. I love the challenge of altering and embellishing these gifts from our physical world. I also dabble in fiber arts with reused textiles, twine, wire, buttons and beads. My goal is to utilize recycled materials in all aspects of my creations, including making my own wrapping paper and cards.
