An online gallery and artist's community committed to a vision
of the healing and awakening of human consciousness through art.

Born over half a century ago to artists, my entire life has been one long, joyous exploration of creativity. I was lucky to be born and raised in a rural setting in Pennsylvania that was close to New York, Philadelphia and Washington DC. Most weekends were spent in art museums or experimenting with the new art materials that were flooding the market in the sixties. My father was a commercial artist and cartoonist. My mother's deepest interests were the fiber arts and she had me on a sewing machine by the time I was seven. My lifelong fascination with thread began then.

As a young woman I spent a fair amount of time exploring painting, sculpting, clay and jewelry making. I decided that I was a scuptor at heart but also decided that I didn't have the maturity needed to fully express my vision. I assuaged my sculptural yearnings in clothing design and construction.
