| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
My mother was my biggest artistic inspiration. I used to sit on the studio floor and design clothes for paper dolls while she painted.
I later met Carol Wagner and Rachel Stonecipher who guided me toward becoming a better printmaker and exploring non-toxic alternatives to traditional printmaking techniques. |

| Your Personal Biography |
I cut my first tooth on a paintbrush in my Mother's studio, where I learned to draw and paint. My whole life has been in an art studio. When I was a little girl I would sit and make paper dolls, designing outfits for them as I watched my Mother paint. Now I like to use the computer as an art tool. I will sketch my ideas, scan them and then play with the digital images till I determine the composition and colors I will work with. Sometimes while playing around I will create collages of my photos, sketches and ready-made computer clip art. I print the final plans, do a painting of the image and/or transfer the digital print to wood for black & white or multi-color woodcut prints. I attempt to convey socially relevant and socially conscious dialogue in my art through the use of humor.
I love to correspond on line with other woodcut artist around the world and am a member of barenforum.org, a worldwide woodcut artist's Internet forum. I regularly participate in print exchanges with these same artists.
I am currently working to finish my Masters in Fine Art and hope to be a college professor when I grow up...
