ARTWORK

I’m inspired by textures and patterns found in nature and love to explore mark-making, mono-printing, mixed media, acrylic
and watercolor. My favorite things are building up layers of paint, graphite, collage, and unexpected marks to create mixed media work. Through my work, I enjoy exploring the contrast between the organic unpredictability of paint and mark-making with the structure of geometric shapes that result in unique harmony. I relish in the textures and layers, and the feeling of never really
​having control over what you are creating.

2020 100 Day Project

I chose to do one 6” x 6” mixed media piece every day for 100 days. A selection of these pieces was exhibited at the Perfect Hanging Gallery in downtown Rapid City in September 2020, here is a sampling.
​
#The100DayProject is a free art project that takes place online every spring where thousands of people all around the world commit to 100 days of exploring their creativity. The idea is simple: choose a project, do it every day for 100 days, and then share your process on Instagram with the hashtag #The100DayProject.

2019 100 Day Project

I chose to do one 4” x 4” watercolor painting every day for 100 days, here is a sampling of these pieces.
