Artist of Things Less Ordinary
I've never been able to categorize myself as a certain type of person. The
closest description that I find suitable would be "less ordinary." Nothing about me is or ever has been ordinary, whether it involves my work, my appearance, or just my life in general. I have finally learned to embrace this with open arms. Most importantly, I live for reflecting my less ordinary nature in my artwork. I love art- creating it, teaching it, exploring it. The excitement of being able to put my entire heart and soul into my work has led me to focus on creating mostly one-of-a-kind pieces, each in some way a reflection or extension of myself and my life. Though jewelry and metalwork are my most favored medium, I see nothing wrong with allowing myself to explore all artistic avenues, be it in paint, clay, glass, or even good old fashioned pencil. I invite you to please explore and enjoy this presentation of my work.
