Art has always been a part of my life. My father was an amateur cartoonist and illustrator, so I spent many nights at his drafting table, coloring along. My grandmother helped me create my first hand-stitched doll dress, and the muse was unleashed. Variations of that design appear in my work today. Noticing my interest, my parents presented me with a sewing machine for my 13th birthday. I immediately set about creating my own wardrobe, and that of my Barbie doll's as well... this eventually led todesign school.
My life has taken many paths - freelance designer, tailor, collage and mixed mediaartist. I still do what I love, and continue to explore creative paths. My collage and mixed media work has appeared in many magazine publications and books.
I currently live in Phoenix, Arizona. My life is still blessed...
