I merge my love of fabric, color, and design in the making of quilted art. My narrative art quilts are presented as a painting on a wall and my quilted memory journals hold the memorabilia signifying family. My art quilts examine and reveal healing narratives incorporating design integrity with a high degree of craftsmanship.
I am originally from Atlanta, Georgia, attending The University of Georgia (B.S.Ed., 1982), Georgia State University (M.Ed., 1985), and Vanderbilt University (M.Div., 2004). At present, I live atop of a very high mountain in Waynesville, NC in a very soulful abode with my studio just an arm’s length away from my kitchen. I was born with crayons in my cradle and probably inherited a creative gene from my mother and grandmothers. I am an academically trained Visual Artist, Educator, and Clinician. I believe my formal learning experiences in the visual arts, expressive arts therapies, education, and psychology coupled with my love of fabric, collage, and textural surfaces led me to the craft of the narrative art quilt.
