Professionally I am an art educator and in my personal practice I am a mixed media artist! I create work questioning how decoration indicates class or social status. I experiment with positioning low art /craft into a fine art setting. I research the work of women makers and historical decorative trends to determine what crafts I can utilize as decoration. I spend time learning each craft traditionally. Then, I continue to explore and transform these materials, using them both in the way they were traditionally intended, and in ways they were not.
