Artist Statement: I love creating fabric and mixed-media art to share with diverse audiences throughout the Pacific Northwest. Art leads me on creative explorations and self-discovery as I unleash new ideas to capture the moment.

Materials & Techniques: I created an art quilt seascape featuring a frothy sea with fierce waves and prominent rocks. The rocks and sea have additional fabric beneath them to force them forward; Angelina fibers help create the gold, orange and yellow sunset. Migrating birds fly against the headwinds as they continue their winged migration. I used free-motion stitching, applique, collage, and quilting on cottons and shear fabrics.
