In 1970, armed with advice from my grandmothers, I launched a quilting project at a community mental health center, and began my first quilt. In 1987 I became a professional quilt maker, in 1989 a quilt artist, and in 1998 a collage fiber artist.
For many years I had a dual career as a psychotherapist and an artist. Often the issues discussed in therapy were also represented in visual form in the quilts. In 1999 I closed my psychotherapy practice and moved full time into the studio.
Each piece of work is created with purpose. Each is an offering.
