For me art is spiritual. It is both in the doing and in the looking at my work that I find a spiritual component. The inspiration for my work evolved from my deep personal interest in the spiritual and symbolic meaning of cloth across time, culture and religion. In many spiritual traditions cloth is sacred. I have taken this interest and created work that embraces my personal need to explore the enigmatic and symbolic language of the soul. I hope to carry the viewer into the mysterious and invisible world of spirit, where the soul suffuses the mundane with a sense of the sacred. Often I combine both text and visual imagery, knowing that language activates one part of the mind while visual imagery another---these two together become a powerful tool for self-expression. Each work is unique, coming from a deep and personal place within. The process is intuitive and soulful.
