I live in my beloved Portland Oregon with my husband and toddler son, spending my days trying to find time to make art amid the hours spent playing with trucks in the mud.
I've been collecting old stuff, playing with wire, doodling in margins and making art of one kind or another for as long as i can remember, but have only recently bucked up and started getting my work out into the big world. I try to combine little bits of lots of things into my pieces. This works well for me seeing as I like to sew on paper and plastic, use power tools, paint with teensy brushes, play around with Photoshop, and draw trees and bicycles. I find it amusing and ironic to combine things like plastic with wood and vinyl with aged book pages. Into this mix I add a little playfulness between 2D and 3D, all the while trying to keep it simple and clean.

I hope you enjoy my work and i'd love to hear from you!
