Story-telling through quilts is a colorful and tactile experience. Combining colors, textures, and prints from my extensive fabric collection, I create tapestries of deep woods, hidden trails, wild animals, seasons' rhythms, ...Traditional piecework and crazy quilt blocks are often incorporated into a realistic Maine scene. A semi-abstract, as well as a folk art quality, emerges in these art quilts.

Researching primitive cultures is one of my favorite past times. Hand painting ancient imagery onto my art quilts conveys our mutual roots in cultures that have a reverence and respect for nature and the feminine.

My art quilts have been collected, exhibited, and published internationally. Please contact me for availability of current artworks for sale, or to commission an art piece designed specifically for your environment. I also offer offset lithographic prints of my quilts. If my artwork can amuse, inspire, enlighten, or pique your curiosity, then it has achieved its purpose.
