Artist Statement

The Chi is an energy, a spirit that flows throughout my life.  It is through this spirit that I express my creativity.  The energy brings to my art work a textured collage’ style.  The fibers are free to flow with my thoughts and responses to life experiences.  It is my hope that the spirit of the Chi will invoke a connection with the viewer.  My art work is an offering of positive energy and peace.
