Sculptor, Textile Artist, & Painter

“My 2-dimensional work is messy and dark, my sculptural work is whimsical and stems from dark fantasy, and my textile work is intricate, with historical and fantastical inspiration. I have struggled in the past to find a common denominator between my three practices. The unifying characteristic is often fantasy based; I grew up reading the Tales of the Brothers Grimm and indulging in escapism and story-telling. I carry these influences into all my forms of art.”
