I’ve spent my life in the South, beginning in Mississippi with a few years in Texas on my way to Arkansas where I have lived since the early 1990’s. I am fortunate to have traveled to many amazing places, but the South will always be my home.

Fiber, clay, wood and paint are the tools I use to bring form to the people and places of my imagination. Texture and color strongly influence my work. My memory doesn’t include a time when I was not creating something. Art is part of who I am. The goal of my art is that the viewer will experience, if only for a moment, the joy of childhood
