I am a story teller and collage art is now the means I use to express myself. I am a self-taught artist and my art is inspired by words, proverbs, color, and life around me. Early in my career I painted in oil, telling stories on canvas about people who had inspired me in one way or another. Since then my work has taken a more whimsical turn. 

Now I am more interested in combinations of materials, words and sayings that find their way into my mixed media art. I search for old bits of history to combine with the new. Found objects and papers as well as new materials all combine to tell the story.
