A venture into using more sustainable fibers...even more than cotton, such as linen. " Terrapin Spin"is a weather vane of sorts,
and variation on my "Chroma-Sound Blossom " design. Turtles and tortoises are as ancient as the dinosaurs. They live in both the sea and the land. Turtles are revered by several world cultures. Check out Lenape Turtle Dance on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKYNslZvXwQ

For me, Art is illuminating, healing and necessary. Creating something unique, merging color with form, and revealing new aesthetics, is a passion of mine. My body of visual artwork is influenced by a lifelong study of world cultures, music and dance. I believe art can be a way to help someone see something, maybe take them beyond expectations, opening up new worlds of possibilities. My aim in making art, is to emerge with an outcome that moves and awakens. My concern for the Earth’s environment, starting with our oceans, reveals itself through the images in some of my work, and the sustainable materials I am incorporating into my art practice.

A viewer once said of my work…” Your art reminds people of themselves, of who they really are. They recognize the art they forgot about... They realize they do know, and can know, and that they never really lost themselves, that they are still there and it makes them happy…”

I invite you, as a unique observer, to find your own take on what you see in my work, and maybe even find your own way into creating something new.
