GOLDEN THREADS SERIES
Do you ever get the feeling that all things are some how mysteriously woven together and connected in your life? Perhaps coincidences are not coincidences. This has always been a fascination of mine. Things may not make sense at first, and we may not fully understand why opportunities and or people show up, but then we discover a connection that is just too profound to be accidental. We ask ourselves it this just a coincidence or perhaps something destined by fate. The universal laws, and findings within quantum physics, prove that we are all connected whether we acknowledge it or not. Our lives are fully intertwined with that of universe, nature and other humans. It is a divine connection that is beyond what can be seen. It is only our egos that keep us separate. This is what I like to think of as the golden thread. I long for a world where the barriers and divisions dissolve and we can co-exist in a more collaborative and peaceful way.

AWAKENINGS SERIES
This body of work was created during my time living in Mexico when I had just left urban life and began experiencing a slower pace, an embodiment of truly being and, as a result, my world became more vibrant which gave me a whole new perspective on both seeing and feeling.

DANCE OF THE SENSES SERIES
This body of work was done while I was spending an extended period of time in Florence, Italy.

When our senses are sharpened we have the ability to find so much beauty and happiness in the everyday.

PORTFOLIO
Working in collage and mixed media allows me to take disparate pieces of things that already exist in life and make new connections and meaning. It gives me the ultimate possibility to play with shapes, textures and imagery, all of which open the eye up to new perspectives and visual context.
This piece is about transformation and change revealing the multiple aspects of oneself.
This piece is about the illusion transgression of time ~ past, present and future.
This piece is in celebration of letting go…
One must face the reality that our physical states are impermanent.
This piece is about the illusion of time, our tendency to squander it and a reminder to make it count in our lives. It is our most precious resource. It asks the question ~ “What is it in your life you are longing to do that you have not yet done”?
The inspiration for this piece is about examining the containers we put ourselves in. Those places we chose to remain in to feel secure and safe What would happen if you dared to get out of your bottle?
