I am a self taught eclectic artist. My art is varied and always changing. I am drawn to the lakeshore and forests. Gathering most of the materials that I work with from the great outdoors is truly a wonderful gift. Rocks, driftwood, feathers and birch bark are some of my favorite objects to work with. Some of my creations are: Rocked objects and vases; Birch bark baskets, Driftwood sunbursts and driftwood mobiles; Leather pillows, purses, coin and card holders; Beaded Jewelry, tie bags, button pins and jewelry; Non traditional penny rug wall hangings and table runners; Photo cards, dream catchers, and leather medicine bags.
While Warren and I are camping, fishing, kayaking and spending time with family we are gathering materials for future creations.
