Introduction to the
Artist
I am working artist of 10 years both in Portland and elsewhere.
As a lover of materials and process, my work as an artist is based on a foundation of mixed styles and media. Glass, ceramics, painting, drawing, collage, and an endless assortment of experimental craft are used to create my body of work. I often use the human figure as a subject and testing ground for these experiments. I use these principals and methods in efforts to create a new aesthetic with each piece I create.
