Here is a message from the artist:

​

“I cannot imagine a life without the mind-numbing, wonderful obsession of creating.”

-famous French-American artist Louise Bourgeois

I find myself calling myself a creative more than an artist these days. Not because the word artist is “bad” but more for the fact that it is a limiting description to what I actually do. When I find something that really interests me, I go all in -spending a ton of time learning, practicing and mastering a craft. I am an artist, but within that a fiber artist, illustrator, graphic designer as well as a writer, a crafter, a costume maker, a teacher, a cook, a baker, and many other things that I become obsessed with. 

Recently, I love to create through illustration and painting. My preferred media for traditional 2-D art is watercolor, ink, pastel, gouache and acrylic paint. I love experimenting with media, to find exactly the texture, color or pattern that I am looking to accomplish. I am very much a process artist as well, the journey is almost always better than the result for me.
