A Bit About Me

"Feathers don't have to be just a trend.  They're of nature,  and therefore are timeless. " 

I have always been an artist, even since I was a little girl.  I would go around our house & sketch everything from my unicorns to tchotckes. 

 

My obsession for interior design has also been a part of me since I was a child.  I was always the one to move the furniture around in our house growing up.  I would put my little legs on the wall and push the sofa with all of my strength. 

 

My need for creativity carried on thru school and college.  I took courses in ceramics, metals & jewelry making, drawing and painting.  During college I was a model and discovered the fashion world.  In love with that world, I moved to LA for make-up & hair school.  I was a make-up artist & hair stylist in the industry for 20 years working on models, actors and celebrities.  I moved around the country doing make-up & hair in LA, Minneapolis, Miami and NY.

 

I've always felt a connection to feathers & have been collecting them all of my life, each one a found treasure.  Feathers are resilient enough to weather a storm, yet are delicate - ethereal. Each one is unique akin to fingerprints.

 

After painting feathers on canvas for years, I dreamt up an innovative approach of visualizing them.  My fashion background, passion for interior design & creativity all come into play when I'm creating my pieces.

 

Feathers are not a trend.  They're of nature, & therefore are timeless. 

 

My artworks are an alternative to traditional framed art, & add a textural element to your space.  They evoke conversation.  They can stand alone, or be displayed as a gallery on your wall.

While creating, each piece is a unique journey that can take unexpected twists and turns.  I've learned to trust that process.  Creating is the one place I'm not confined by rules.  There's freedom in art.  I possess a profound need to create, an expression of my soul.
