I am a rag and bone artist. Using an array of mixed media techniques, I form a new narrative from natural elements and discarded items which have been left behind. I recycle and shape the beautiful out of the leftovers.

After two years of formal art training in my college years, life took me on a long detour into another career while supporting my family. Fourteen years ago I returned to art, taking many classes to re-fresh my skills and learn new techniques. I embarked on a long awaited, completely different, new career.

I live, create, and exhibit my work in local galleries and book stores in Long Beach and Laguna Beach, California. I have exihibited various sculptures and books in Pennsylvania, Illinois, and New York. I have participated in numerous annual shows in my hometown as well as in Joshua Tree, California, Sedona, Arizona, and Santa Fe, New Mexico. I have completed two art residency programs at Ghost Ranch, Abiquiu, New Mexico.
