I am a passionate art instructor, thingmaker, bookmaker, figurative assemblage artist and recovering perfectionist. My background is in fine arts and photography and I’ve been teaching art workshops for the past 26 years. I develop my classes by playing, making a mess, making “mistakes” and I can’t think of any better way to live and make a living. I love to create, to hunt for things to create with & to share my creativity with others.  It’s what I live for, it’s my oxygen.
I grew up in a small town in upstate New York and I have spent most of the past 20 years in New Mexico. I am so lucky to live in Taos, the mountains of Northern New Mexico, with my best friends Thomas, Peetie, Lily. Jessie, Emma and Hairy B.
