"I am a self-taught professional artist/designer, working from my studio in Cleveland, Ohio. Using found objects, recycled elements, and various stones and glass, I handsew or weave thousands of tiny seed beads to create my one-of-a-kind works of art. My work comes from my innermost soul. In my mind, these pieces need to be created. Some for their sheer beauty, others to delight the eye and to stir the imagination."
