l use a variety of techniques and materials; painting, printmaking, sewing, collage, video, installation and book arts to reconcile myperceived experience of chaos as intuition, uncertainty, and coincidence and order as clarity, harmony, and connection. I like to challenge traditional ways of working and the practice of adhering to a singular media. Through making art I experience disorganization and coherence repeatedly and delightedly - a process that has engaged me for 40 plus years. I have show regionally for the past 20 years and the residencies, such as the Helene Wurlitzer Foundation, New Mexico (1998 and 2008) have challenged my process and provided venus to connect to communities.  Show include; monotypes and paintings at the AVA Gallery, Lebanon; installations and collaborative installations at the Flynndog, Burlington; and prints and hair drawings at Burlington City Arts. Residencies include, Vermont Studio Week at the Vermont Studio Center, 2018, and a six month residency at New City Galerie, 2015. Grants awarded include; a Development Grant from the Vermont Arts Council, 2009 to learn letterpress printing; Creation Grant from the Vermont Arts Council, 2004 to help fund a collaborative video project with Jane Honer and Karen McGregor; Kittredge Foundation Grant, 2002 to learn more printmaking.
