It is apparent to me that my work is inspired by nature, everyday life and of course, my imagination (which although running rampant from time to time, allows me the artist license to create the projects I come up with). I have many friends who offer their imagination and thoughts and together we often "brainstorm" very creative ideas.
My passion for crafts would be divided in several areas. Mostly, my love of stained glass and the joy of taking a sheet of glass and turning it into a thing of beauty for all to see is one of my great passions. I prefer 3-dimensional projects in stained glass. In beading, I tend to lean towards culturally inspired themes for my projects. "Off the Wall" is how I would describe my driftwood wind chimes. My work entails using a variety of machinery for stained glass. I enjoy the varying techniques I use, such as beading and stippling my seams, overlay and 3-dimentional. I use mediums such as stained glass, various weathered woods and found objects. Quite often I will use several of these mediums together.
