Artist's Statement
I have always searched for a medium to express the long unspoken
artistic language that I knew was a part of me. Altered paper has
provided a visual voice releasing memories of silent observation,
or life experiences, or a turn of a word or phrase.
The challenge of a problem to solve, the expansion
of an idea, the surprise and euphoria that come from a moment of
clarity produce the energy that drives my creativity. So everyday
I am drawn to work in my studio. There I have found that I become
a more complete person. I know I am limitless.
