I have always found solace in making art, but it wasn’t until I started working with the medium of glass that I found the luminosity of color that I so craved. With the use of line, shape, color, opacity, and transparency, I create the illusion of many layers and depth even though I am restricted to a single plane.

Nature is my theme because it is home to perfectly formed shapes, patterns, compelling proportional relationships, vibrant color, and endless variety. It adheres to the rules of geometry and yet, it has a deep emotional quotient for us. My goal in presenting nature is to distill it to the minimal while still conveying that emotional quality.

“I like to find the line between conveying too much versus too little. By capturing the idea of something, its essence rather than its literal form, I can push myself and the viewer to look inward at how the work makes us feel.”
