I began making embroideries with fiber artist Laura Reyes in the summer of 2008. We began by embroidering on pieces of vintage fabric and mailing them back and forth to one another.

I try to use embroidery as another means of drawing.

Necklaces, Farm Figures, Goodlucks & Ornaments
Small keepsakes and special gifts. These are meant to be given to those you love.

I believe that small things matter.

I am most excited by spots and specks, details and forgottens, things left on the street and beneath beds. I am a collector of small things and I try to be attentive to the relationships formed by otherwise disparate objects and images. I often make believe that tiny worlds exist in the smallest things and if we look long enough we might get to see something truly special.

The never-ending evidence of everyday life, A decimal point existence.

Pretending to be the crumbs scraped off burnt toast, Jumping in and out of the work, no bigger than a flea.

I fall in love with the speck of green beside me in a field of yellowed paper A bigger existence disguised as small.

The intimacy of looking, Nothing is without an identity.

The work is a reminder of my smallness.
