artist statement

• An idea hits me often when I least expect it. I quickly sketch the idea on whatever is laying around. I take my doodle to second hand stores, thrift shops, and yard sales where I look for various objects and materials that I can use to create my piece.
• While I am wandering through second hand shops, an idea can be sparked by finding forgotten and often broken objects. The design of the piece evolves from the found objects. Each idea will often change as the piece is constructed.
