Having worked in social services since their teen years, the artist has a deep understanding of pain, hardship, love, and transformation. Since 2005, they have been dedicated to serving at a domestic violence shelter, immersing themselves in a constant stream of stories. Living in a forest environment, this backdrop often seeps into their artwork, which includes photographs, collage, fabric, stitching, and whatever else comes to mind. Due to their demanding schedule, the artist's pieces are patchworked together intermittently, reflecting the passage of time in their creations.
Their digital artwork tends to be abstract and collagist in nature, while their photography captures moments from family, travels, and the forest world around them. Many pieces combine handsewn or handwoven fiber projects with photographs, paintings, masks, and other sculptural pieces made from various materials. Each piece grows over time, as the artist picks up where they left off years ago, creating something new and evolving. The hope is that viewers will find connection and enjoyment within the artist's work, appreciating the depth and complexity of each piece.
For those seeking unique and thought-provoking prints for their home or office decor, the artist's collection offers a blend of emotion, creativity, and storytelling. Each piece carries a piece of their journey and experiences, inviting viewers to explore and connect with the themes of love, transformation, and resilience.
