Artist's Statement- Like most artists my interest in creating things started before I even knew what an interest was. It is completely hardwired into my brain. Whether it is paint, color, charcoal, fabric, clay, cardboard, what most people would consider garbage or just about anything, I see a potential piece of art. Sometimes it works out wonderfully and other times...well we won't talk about those times. I love color and I love to create..no pretenses... just the raw materials and a passion.
