About Me

If my hands aren't busy doing something, then something just isn't right with my world. Art has been my passion since I can remember. I grew up watching my grandfather (Opa) working in his wood shop. I can still smell the wood & in my minds eye see him, not just working but enjoying his craft. His ability to create something from basic natural elements still amazes me. I always thought I'd be an artist of some sort eventually. In 2005, after being diagnosed with Breast Cancer a new being surged & I realized at that point what was really important to me. My creative being needed to get out & explore the world. In 2006 I found a metal working instructor & took classes in jewelry fabrication. All of a sudden I could go from painting to creating something that was 3 dimensional! The tactile experience of working with metal took hold of me. I enjoy the process of forming the metal while incorporating imagery from the world around me. As I continue my education through various classes & working in my studio full time, my craft continues to evolve. I awaken each day with a drive and desire to create new & exciting pieces. Thanks to my Opa who continues to inspire me.
