Dream imagery has been inspiring me for as long as I can remember.
Although I tried to portray dreams literally in the past, I now try to sense the dream and record the energy of its experience. By giving my unconscious a "hook" or theme to work with, such as my present redifinitions theme, ancient pages theme, or the card, music, pear or chair in the past, I allow the images to surface and layer themselves in an almost hypnotic way as I work. I have explored many, many forms of artistic expression in my career, from watercolor to woodcuts, monotypes to paintings on canvas. Nothing to date has satisfied my particular need for expression as has the mixed media collage. I feel as if I have found my authentic vein of gold. I can layer imagery or make a minimalist statement. I get to use my hands in a very tactile way, and I get to use materials that have deep personal meaning to me. I truly believe that art saves lives. It has surely saved mine.

I hope my art adds joy and mystery to the lives of those who view it.
