ARTIST STATEMENT
A native of Oakland, CA, I have worked in oils, watercolors,
ceramics, printmaking, and for the past few years in gut (hog
casings). I feel that working in gut is such a delicate process
in so many realms that it can only be experienced to really
appreciate the full creative process. I have been doing art all
of my life, and can think of no better way to participate in the
creative process than making art. The slick organic material of
gut presents a real challenge since I use the shoe in my work as
a metaphor for various aspects of life.
