I am a printmaker who specializes in textile design and home décor.  I create one-of-a-kind, limited edition screen-printed and block printed textiles.  I find tremendous inspiration through traveling and literature, especially children’s books.

My travels have taken me to Kenya, Tanzania, Japan, Guatemala, Mexico and through out much of Europe. On these journeys I have collected the rich and vibrant textiles of these places.  When I am not traveling I am living life to its fullest here in Minneapolis, MN.  I am an avid gardner, foodie and momma.  I find these currents are often woven in the narratives I share through my textiles designs and prints.For the past thirteen years I have explored the art of printmaking, primarily creating woodcuts and monotype prints.  In recent years I have chosen to further specialize, developing textile designs and illuminated pieces.  In 2010, I launched my textile line, the pillowtalk project, which features limited edition, one-of-a-kind screen prints on luminaries, pillows, potholders, tea towels and toggery.

My S/S 2012 Collections are a reflection of place.  I create my designs to embody a joie de vivre.  As an artist I work to translate and share that spirit in my designs.
