  Ever since I can remember I have been creating, wanting to work with colour and texture to express myself.  Weaving has become one of my avenues for expression.  I use many of painting's techniques and concepts; working with colour, abstract design, repetition, use of line and texture.  I thoroughly enjoy the freedom of this form of constructive art.  I often take inspiration from nature, trying to incorporate the feeling and intrigue nature gives us, wanting to stimulate thought for those who look at my work.  I try to provide energy, depth, and movement through the use of colour and texture, realizing that everyone will interpret my creations in their ow individualized way.
