Painting, Jewelry, Fiber
I have been at Thornton Rd. Studios, Studio J, since 2005. A member of the Waterloo Watercolor Group, I paint in watercolors and acrylics. I'm influenced by Klimpt and have been working on a series of women on the red carpet or in gardens, but making art is such a creative process that it often goes off on tangents. I also make earrings from jump rings with beads and colored aluminum bolts. My jewel-like ladder yarn scarves are popular. I make unique boxes out of watercolor paintings that didn't turn out to my liking.
