"The focus of my work is on the qualities of color, line, and texture, which engage the spirit and emotions of the viewer, evoking a sense of mystery, excitement, or joy inspired by visual impressions, collected in my travels, in my everyday life, and in my imagination. Illusions of movement, depth, and luminosity are common to most of my work.

My quilts are about seeing, experiencing, and imagining, rather that pictorial representation of any specific object or species. When recognizable objects appear, they represent the emotions and flights of fantasy evoked by those objects. I intend for my quilts to be seen and enjoyed by others. It is my hope that they will lift the spirits and delight the eyes of those who see them."
