Karma Series
Karma means "action" or
"cause and effect." Everything we do, say, or even think, leads to something else--for every cause, there's an effect. My goal as a person and as an artist is to remember this law of nature as I make decisions. My art gives me plenty of practice with this--as I add or remove each piece of fabric, it affects the other elements in unexpected ways, leading me on an unknown path to a final composition. 
Glyph Series
This series grew out of my interest in ancient petroglyphs, calligraphies, alphabets and symbols from around the world.
I find it interesting that similar symbols arise from various cultures separated by great time and distances and that they sometimes feel familiar even though we don't know their meaning. I take symbols and restructure them, creating my own variations that each viewer will interpret based on his or her own experiences.
Deconstructed Circles Series
These are the seed that began my Karma Series. Here I played with taking circles apart,
cutting
and rearranging to see how much I could remove or distort and still have your eye complete the shapes.
