Beauty is found in the simple, natural forms around us.
Organic shapes, colors and textures are harnessed using design elements which guide the viewer to recognize energy and life hidden within. In this way the seldom noticed details of the natural world become elevated to the sacred.

My prints are based on the "haiku moments" of my life when there is a heightened awareness and I see the world with greater clarity. Details that I don't normally notice hold a special significance and their deeper meaning is revealed. The moment passes, but I am left with a special, almost magical feeling. It is that moment that I try to capture in my work.

Pattern, texture and energy are my primary intent, not realistic depiction. I use personal life experiences, memories, and stories as my inspiration. Each piece is representative of thoughtful reflection. The intricate style of the work leads to meditation which aids in correlating natural law with current personal, political or social events.

Just trying to do good in the world in each small way that I can. Every day is a new beginning to try to be the best person I can be.

I am human and I make more than my fair share of mistakes, but how is a person to grow unless they learn from those same mistakes?

It's the trying that counts. Eventually the small ways will lead to a greater path.

That is my hope.
