I am a self-taught artist, having beenmaking art since childhood. I have completed courses in Photography, Ceramics, Painting and Drawing. My current work in collage is an amalgamation of all these lessons. Artistic influences include Eric Carle (children’s book author/illustrator, Jasper Johns, Gerhard Richter and Rex Ray, to name a few). My inspiration often comes from swimming and I am lucky enough to swim regularly with amazing athletes who have taught me to love and appreciate the water.
Having completed a degree in Engineering, I still work in a corporate environment. However, I find my flow in the studio as often as possible. Living in Redmond, I am continuously amazed and inspired by the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. How lucky we are to live here!
