Her work can be describes as whimsical, quizzical, sometimes a little freaky but at the same time serious and thoughtful and most of all sincere. Her artist Statement is short but explains it well. 

“The essence of my work is in concepts of vulnerability and protection. I’ve worked in various media but focus primarily on ceramics, relief printmaking and hand-made books. All are process-oriented media that have some commonality. They each combine the physicality of natural materials, the creativity of drawing and color mixing, the intellectual satisfaction of a puzzle, and the hazard of chance.” ( Artists Website/Statement)

It feels wonderful to be in such company. Please visit her website for more art, information and contact details.
