Lake Michigan is one of my favorite places to be in this world. Anywhere from Union Pier to Saugatuck to Mackinaw - it is an amazing and beautiful combination of woods and water.
I love nothing more than to stand barefoot on the beach ( in the sun or the rain and even snow! ). Listening to the waves is meditative and feeling the power of the lake is humbling. It is both cathartic and energizing for me.
Being there is one of my forms of therapy - it makes me happy, healthy and just does my heart good!
This is glazed watercolor & ink on wood.
As an artist I am driven by the desire to explore the intricate relationship between nature and humanity. My work seeks to provoke thought and evoke emotion, inviting viewers to engage with the world around them in a deeper, more meaningful way.
I work in either watercolor or fabric. Each artwork is a reflection of my personal experiences, imagination and the stories that shape our collective experiences.
Through my art I aim to challenge perceptions and encourage reflection. I believe in the power of art and that it may foster some connection with oneself and the larger world.
I find inspiration from nature, other artists, humanity and I continuously seek to expand my understanding and technique. My creative process is both intuitive and experimental, allowing for moments of spontaneity alongside careful consideration.
Ultimately my art is a journey - one that I hope to share with others. I invite viewers to step into my world and discover their interpretations, fostering a shared experience that transcends individual perspectives.
Thank you for taking the time to engage in my work.
