I have explored many mediums of expression. Stained glass\, jewelry\, beadwork\, photography\, pottery\, straw bale construction\, knife making\, digital art and now painting. One continuing thread with every medium has been my interest in Mandalas and Sacred Geometry. I thoroughly enjoy seeing the transition and progress from one medium to the next.”
