My interest in creating handmade paper has taken me on a path of seemingly unlimited

discovery. The very nature of papermaking has me hiking across the countryside looking

for potential fiber and blending the worlds of science and art.

Using rich, bold color and repeating patterns, I weave my handmade paper

with an assortment of mixed papers and found objects. Layering color and texture,

I let paper tapestries emerge to become meditation pieces.

My love for the Silk Road cultures has influenced both the appearance

of my work and the manner in which it is created. 

It has brought a respect for the process as well as the result.
