My work consists of a mix of geometric patchwork tapestries which reflect my inner thoughts as well as memories that stitch together my trips around the world.

​

In the increasingly chaotic pace of life, I seek, stitch by stitch, to refrain from coming undone.  My art is about reconnecting with ourselves, finding our center, our place in this world.   It is about allowing ourselves to catch our breath, to slow down, to contemplate, to quiet the internal agitations of our minds and to rediscover the beauty in our hearts.

​

I create my pieces intuitively, using colourful blends of rich natural textures and beads … lots and lots of them, hundreds if not thousands … all connected, banded together by hand with a needle and thread. The patterns that emerge are geometric in form which is very appeasing and meditative.  Each sequence leads to another, there is no beginning nor any end, there is only the continuous flow where the act of joining each element together gives shape to the final design, to a sense of wholeness. This wholeness is born out of what is complimentary to one another rather than what is in opposition to one another.

 

My art is about surrendering to that creative force that wells up deep within me and that propels me to rediscover all the beauty that is at the heart of who I am … of who we are … how we compliment one another is that invisible thread that unites us all.  

To make that thread visible … I’ve make it my passion!
