I love recycling paper and other organic material and transforming it into art. I have a passion for all that is unique and hand-made. I create one-of-a-kind pieces exploring themes such as faith and antiquity, utilizing embossing, embedding and casting techniques. Hand-spun art fibers add a rich textural component to some pieces.

I upcycle (tear up colored paper), whiz it up in the blender with water to make a slurry. This goes into a vat. I dip my screen into the slurry and turn it out onto a surface with decorative objects. When the pulp dries it is 'cast' with designs. Fibers, metallics and ephemera mixed in with the pulp become embedded into the dried paper. It is a delightful and messy process which has taken over my small kitchen. It is a forgiving medium with happy 'accidents.'

I happily accept commissions and will work with you to accommodate your spatial and color needs.
