•  In the decade of the 60’s we were the feral teenagers of a San Juan Island known as Lummi, a 12 minute ferry crossing from the mainland which is 20 minutes west of Bellingham, WA. The island was different. Everybody who lived there was unique, strange, or an outcast. Every day on Lummi Island I woke up feeling like a protagonist in a novel and wondering what will happen to my character today! 

I use many different mediums, such as clay, acrylics, and pastels and many different surfaces.  Experimenting with oil on metal such as the one depicted here, Gooseberry Driftwood on copper.  I believe that working in a single medium is restrictive to my artistic process. Each idea manifests in its own individual style.

Because of a magical childhood growing up on Lummi Island with one foot in the water and one foot on land I am continually inspired by "living on the edge."
