Colors are very essential as a starting point for all my work, whether it is art quilts, fabric collages or some of my hand woven rugs. I dye many of my materials myself, allowing me to apply my own coloration.

I started as a weaver. I like the simplicity of weaving, creating textures and unique color variations. In recent years, my interest in different dyeing techniques has led me to try other processes including quilting and appliqué work. It gives me freedom to try new imagery with curved lines, but still simplified motifs of objects and nature.
