Having lived in the Southwest United States for over 40 years, I have long enjoyed experimenting with a wide range of desert materials in my workshop. From gourds to desert clay, I’ve found ways to turn these materials into beautiful and even whimsical canvases and I’ve enjoyed every part of it.

For years, my son and husband have seen me create artwork that has made them proud and finally after all of their encouragement and rave reviews from many satisfied customers, I’ve decided to harness this passion and my talent to bring my art to a wider audience. I hope that you see a little bit of me in every piece I create.

I take a gourd which is this amazing canvas and bring my art to life. My style is contemporary, Southwest, and whimsical. I use multiple techniques to enhance the beauty of the gourd.

The beauty of the gourd inspires me to create what my head and heart see.
