Because of my love of nature and my concern about the environment, I have been exploring the use of natural and recycled materials in my art for many years.

In my search for more eco-friendly materials, I found an innovative use for leftover house paint -- I repurpose it for my colorful abstract paintings. I rescue paint that would otherwise go to waste and be disposed of from recycling centers.

My one-of-a-kind botanical ecoprints are made by steaming leaves against paper. No inks, dyes or paints are used -- just the colors from the plants themselves.

I create unique one-of-a-kind jewelry and cards from my paintings and ecoprints, carefully handcrafting each piece.
