Visual Art – Minneapolis
I grew up in rural Minnesota and was greatly affected by the beauty in nature around me. As a child, I was always making things with mud and drawing on walls. Along with nature and its influence on my work, I am drawn to creating the feminine image in many forms. My art background is painting, with a focus on portraiture. I have never had a shortage of imaginative and creative thoughts. The work often leads me to see new things that my hands are anxious to make. My newest endeavor is passing on my somewhat unconventional skills by teaching at Quench Jewelry Arts in Minneapolis.
