Artist Statement

“My work is influenced by the rhythmic and organic patterns found in nature as well as the precision of mathematically perfect geometric shapes. Using hand-painted warps and a variety of conventional and unconventional techniques and materials I explore layers of transparency and illusion and how they intersect within the two-dimensional plane of weaving to create ethereal landscapes.”
