I am a self-taught artist inspired by the creativity that I believe we all have within us. I work with acrylic paints on canvas and also create altered books – taking old books destined for the landfill and giving them new life as works of art. I love bold and vibrant colors and paint both abstracts and figurative abstracts. My intuition guides me to explore and discover fun ways of playing with paint rather than choosing a subject ahead of time. Layer upon layer of paint make up my canvases, and whimsical found objects guide the themes of my altered books.
You can find my altered books in-person at Gallery 10 in Sutter Creek in northern California.
