| Artist Statement I believe my art should be visually pleasing, intellectually intriguing, technically stunning, and sometimes humorously entertaining. My concept of "Mixed Media" embraces a mix of processes as well as materials. In creating a new work I am often a photographer, digital artist, illustrator, painter, art quilter, mosaic artist and collage artist. The natural world gives us so many textures to capture or reflect light - I love balancing and contrasting many of them in a piece. Most of my compositions are inspired by perspectives from the natural world, often in macro (up-close) views. Although every now and then I diverge into geometrics, abstracts, and architecture. I love the versatility of fabric as my base medium. The vast variety of types and styles allows for infinite combinations of visual and tactile textural variety. Adding other media to this base brings contrast to the fabrics' natural warmth. Some of my pieces are intricately sewn using advanced techniques, others are fused collage with top-stitching, painting, drawing, wire sculpture, tile work, beading or other embellishments. By approaching fabric from a mixed media viewpoint, rather than traditional needlework, I hope to introduce art lovers to the magic of fabric as an emerging fine art medium. |

| Returns Due to the risk and cost involved in shipping artwork, please try to be certain about your purchase prior to ordering. I am happy to send you more photos and information about a piece to aid in your decision. All of my customers so far have found that the item they received was more intricate and pleasing than the photos on the website could convey. However, if you feel you must return an item, I accept returns for a full refund within 45 days of the original purchase date. Returned artwork must be well packaged (in the original wrapping would be best) and shipped with Delivery Tracking and Insurance. I will issue a refund in full upon receipt of the returned artwork. Your refund is dependent upon my receipt of the returned package, so Delivery Tracking and Insurance are critical - if a package is lost during return without insurance, I cannot issue the refund. I appreciate your care in the handling of my artwork. |
