In 2002, I was pleased when my original designs, "Snow Angel Groupies" were published in "Canadian Studio Tour Christmas Ornaments". Little Rock Images also publishes pattern packets featuring painted Christmas ornament designs. Beadwork jewelry pattern packets are coming soon.

 

Beadwork courses in spiral rope, netting, and bead embroidery sparked interest in my creative soul and get me hooked. Freeform Peyote is my favorite stitch as to allows the beads to walk pathways to one-of-a-kind pieces.

 

I like to learn different things and experiment so I enjoy working with mixed media including polymer clay, altered art, soft pastel, and needlefelting. Most recently I have enjoyed taking a course in traditional rug hooking. My Grandmother would be pleased!

 

Most of my inspiration comes from my love of colour, nature, the animal world and all things eclectic.
