about the artist
Stitching is an extension of my thoughts through my hands. This slow art, textural and multi-layered, reveals a product born of concentration on an idea and hours of application.
As I work I am sensitive to surprises, allowing the line and images to tell me more than I think I know. The inner becomes the outer. It’s about defining rough edged ideas through intimate attention to detail.
It’s about the layered, ripped, cut, and sandwiched together pieces—producing a composition that reflects my values and my voice. There is a point in every quilt that I recognize as the moment when body, soul, and statement come together, when I can declare: I stand by this work.
