Artist Statement

I create ethereal, colorful works of art. Creating with imagery delicately removed with a cutting blade from vintage magazines, books, and postcards, the images are reassembled and become unified, telling one story.  My work celebrates women, and the complexities of the role of a mother. I love to showcase humor and personification within my work. Negative space in my work provides the images with room for conversation; the crisp background acts as a springboard for the detail and fusion of the images. Whether a work on paper or panel encased in resin, these images are rescued from thrift stores, half-priced book shops, and estate sales and archived and preserved within their new story.
