Fiber, Art & Creativity

I am a mixed media artist, who envisions herself as a modern day alchemist/archeologist. I love taking items that are broken, rusty, vintage, lost, forgotten, sparkly, torn, and tarnished things and transform them into new artist creations. These can manifest as mixed media jewelry, collage & assemblage and even handspun novelty yarns.
