ARTIST STATEMENT
I have never wondered what I wanted to do in my life. Creating; whether in metal, glass, paint or print, has been my life. Watching art transcend barriers to language, culture, and intellect through teaching and advocacy has been an added fulfillment to my own artistic process.
Since June 24 this year my indignation has been brewing like a well fed Kombucha scoby over the lying justices sneaky Dobbs decision. My series of mosaics called “Vestibules” is an answer to Roe versus Wade being overturned.
