I have always loved the feel of fine leather and am intrigued by it as a sculptural medium. For me, creating mythic creatures from materials that have had a previous life is ultimately appropriate. I honor the stories embedded in the materials, be they leather, stone, old textiles, or beads, and honor the sources. May they encourage your sense of adventure and the creation and sharing of story.

Thank you to everyone who attended the May Paradise Arts Festival in Northampton and/or contacted me in response to the show. It was wonderful to see everyone and hear from you. Many pieces found their permanent homes and I am busy filling orders. Ideas for new creatures are swirling. May your summer be filled with wondrous adventure and creative energy!
