Artist Statement: "My paintings are created digitally, playing with color, line, shape and texture. I'm playing more than working, letting ideas flow into and through my fingers, without much conscious thought. I always feel like I'm watching it become."
About the Breaking Rules, Honoring Tradition Exhibit: "For our 28th annual Art Quilt exhibition, the tension between pushing boundaries versus adhering to tried-and-true methods plays out in fiber form. We invited rule-breakers and traditionalists alike to interpret the theme in a variety of ways, including applying it to physical techniques, materials, construction methods, personal narratives, or commentary on social, cultural and political concerns. In addition to traditional quilting fabrics, materials may include alternative substrates like wood, paper, or metal. All submissions - traditional, unconventional, or a combination of both - were considered for craftsmanship, originality, design, and concept."
