About my work:
My creations are inspired by nature, dreams and the subconscious mind.I'm a big fan of "up-cycling", re-purposing and renewing.
My "rescued" polymer clay pendants are created using clay that was on it's way out of the local craft store to the dump. Although I'm not a big fan of using synthetic materials, I'm also not a fan of waste. I hate seeing useful things being sent to landfills. I'm almost to the end of the rescue batch, and will be going back to using good 'ol natural-made clay soon!
My handmade books are created from a variety of recycled papers and materials (anyone remember using 1980's floppy disks?).
My drawings are created using materials that I purchased at New Orleans' "Green Project Store" www.thegreenproject.org

About me:
I grew up surrounded by the swamps of South
Louisiana. Their natural serenity and visually busy qualities continue to infiltrate my work. I'm a formally educated artist, currently working in digital media and visual arts.My professional undertakings have ranged from working at an artist-run citrus farm, to organizing happenings, outdoor multi-media concerts & community art projects in rural South Louisiana & New Orleans, to teaching and grant-writing. At present,I'm working as a teaching artist (teaching film, theatre & ballet to elementary school students) and grant writer (for Nola-based media arts & performing arts non-profits) in New Orleans. In addition to creating visual arts I also produce work in stop-motion animation that explores physical and spiritual inertia. Some of my time is spent editing documentary video projects with my husband, view our latest project here: http://www.vimeo.com/6744935
Please feel free to contact me with questions about my work or requests!
