I took a sewing class when I was eleven.

I studied weaving when I was twenty.

I began painting when I was thirty.

Now, close to forty years on, I continue to paint, all the while paying homage to my deep roots and love of textiles.

My unabashed love of pattern permeates all that I do.

This current body of work incorporates stitching in collaged pieces of my old paintings.

My process has gone full circle, working in materials that I have always loved, in ways that have always been familiar to me.
