My concentration of work is in mixed media pieces, art quilts and art dolls. I love experimenting and learning new methods and materials. My work has been published in Art Doll Quarterly, shown in galleries/art centers, and commisioned. I originally studied Ceramics and have a B.F.A. from Tyler Schol of Art in Philadelphia. Art makes the world a better place!

New Doll
In the spring there was a doll & teddy bear convention in Philadelphia. http://www.quinlanmuseum.com/ It was a great event with many talented artists and craftspeople. I had not made dolls for a while, but this show was inspiring. I went home and started working on this doll that afternoon! No pattern, just free formed the design. Later, I went to a thrift store, hoping to find a stool or chair to fit my doll. Viola- I found this bent wood bench for two dollars or so. Now I"m back to art quilting, but making this doll was a fun project. She has a dragon fly in her hands and she plans on spending the day in the Garden.
