LIFE JOURNAL
LIFE AT HOME
I love to surround myself at home with nature and sentimental objects. This sculpture is one from a dear friend Cheryl Ekstrom who has passed away. I miss her and her work sits on my computer desk at home with a rose quartz rock given to me by another dear friend.
Living and creating with natural objects of beauty is the core of my artistic nature. I am also a writer so I tend to have bits and pieces of paper on every desk at home and at work.
LIFE OF A WRITER
Handwriting has always meant more to me than letters on a page. Our signature is a representation of who we are and who we claim to be. I am a paper fanatic and I am compelled to write on all scraps of paper. I am obsessed with tearing paper because as in all things I love worn edges, frayed fabric, love showing up in all the places we have touched.
GIVING BACK
As a single full-time working Mom of twin teenage girls I don't have alot of time but giving back is so important to me. I love to mentor, speak to young women and Mom's and donate to organizations that help restore life and idgnity to women and children. These are some of the organizations I support. If you would like me to speak, please contact me.
