The art that I create on any given day reflects my mood, dreams and self-analysis of that moment. It can vary wildly, from wanting to express my deepest beliefs, hopes and aspirations to simply wanting to create something that will put a smile on the observers face.
I was the child who couldn’t stay inside the lines and wanted to color the trees purple and the sky green. Not finding encouragement from my teachers, I very quickly decided that I had no artistic talent and sought self-expression through other venues. It wasn’t until I was in my early 40’s that I enrolled in my first mosaic course and suddenly a spark that had lay dormant for decades was ignited.
Today I make art solely to regenerate my spirit and express my creative nature in something I can touch and feel both physically and emotionally.
