Original Works
This body of mixed-media work combines watercolor washes and drybrush mark-making with layered cut paper and machine stitching. Fluid washes establish atmosphere and movement, while drybrush adds texture and subtle detail. Paper layers are shaped and stacked to build depth, and stitched seams bind elements together, introducing line, rhythm, and structure. The interplay of water, paper, and thread balances spontaneity with precision, resulting in richly textured surfaces that feel both intimate and tactile.
This cut-paper artwork features a chickadee in a spring scene, composed in soft light yellows, fresh greens, and touches of orange, with a subtle suggestion of sunshine in the background. Layered paper forms create gentle relief, while stitched details throughout add texture and quiet rhythm. The piece offers a serene, handcrafted interpretation of spring’s warmth and renewal.
Petals Painted Sky is an original mixed media floral artwork combining watercolor and hand stitching. Layers of dark and soft blue and blue-green washes create a sky-like atmosphere, while a single pink and white carnation emerges as the focal point.
Delicate stitched details enhance the surface with subtle texture, blending fiber art with traditional watercolor techniques. Measuring 8x10 inches, this piece is ideal for intimate spaces, gallery walls, or collectors of nature-inspired and botanical artwork.
This original mixed media artwork captures the energy of a spring peeper frog emerging from dense underbrush. Deep green and red tones form a rich, layered foundation, while vibrant orange and purple accents bring movement and contrast to the composition.
Yellow and orange cut paper elements introduce sharp, graphic edges and intentional negative space, set against organic, flowing underbrush forms. The interplay between crisp cut shapes and softer painted areas creates visual tension and depth. Stitched details add tactile texture, blending fiber techniques with mixed media processes and inviting closer inspection.
Inspired by early spring wetlands and nocturnal chorus, this piece celebrates color, pattern, and the quiet resilience of nature.
