The serenity of living in nature inspires me, and that tranquility is then reflected. My work communicates a feeling of peace, harmony and a  profound respect for nature and humanity.

About my Process

I am a glass artist, enamelist and metalsmith.

Working with these mediums is evocative, personal and stimulating for me.

I use texture, color as the common threads in my work. I grew up with a father who was an industrial arts teacher so I learned to work with wood and steel at an early age. As I pursued my art education I learned to work with gold,sterling and various steels.

I live on a lake. I use the colors and patterns of sunrises, sunsets and flowers as inspiration. Each work has a emotional message and comment I also use this medium to comment on our social issues.

The elegance and beauty of creating these works has given me great solace on life's journey.
