Since the beginning of my second career in art, I have worked hard to perfect my weaving, sculpture and woodworking skills. I gather much of my inspiration from the environment and my adventures through other cultures around the world. Even though I create primarily for myself, my work has been well received by buyers and critics alike; a fact I do not take lightly. It has been the realization of a dream to participate in the top shows in America and a tremendous honor to have my work featured by The Smithsonian and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
