My imagination ran wild from an early age; from drawing my own books, planting glass shards to grow glass flowers to watching a spider build its web, anything was possible. I attended the School of Visual Arts in NY but learned much more out in the world. I was excited by many forms of media, including glass, film, sculpture, painting, architecture and more. This creative exploration led me to find my true artistic path through mosaic art, fused glass, & photography. My creative inspiration comes from all over, from the smallest insect to the largest building or tree. I especially enjoy exploring the raw beauty of nature and through my lens, my mind's eye becomes free to observe, imagine, think, and wonder.

My passions are fused glass, mosaics, macro photography, abstract, illusion, nature, textures, and structures. Each day has a surprise to unveil, and I always have a camera with me to capture it. The surrealism and beauty of unseen details evoke a sensory response in me, as I hope it does in you. My goal is to take the observer of my work along with me on this journey of discovery and to impart and inspire introspection of how we all view and move through our world, and have our imagination run unfettered with curiosity and wonder.

If you have any questions about any piece, feel free to ask me.

I only have one rule……

If it is an abstract picture, I will never tell you what the origin or subject is.

Art is relative and is meant to be engaging and enjoyed.
