The pieces in Quartets and Variations range from tightly constructed quartets framed together to a wall of various sized images arranged in a seemingly random fashion. They interact as if in conversation or parts of a musical composition with rhythm and harmony. The images reference the landscape and nature.

Mapscape is part map, part landscape. Each of the 500 sheets of handmade paper in this installation is a world unto itself. The assembled grid forms another pattern, another map, another landscape, another world. The grid also suggests an aerial view of the land where landscape and map merge.

A series of drawings entitled, Solitude, are a response to a month-long residency, living and working alone in a cabin without electricity, surrounded by trees, mountains, and the colors of Southern California's high desert.

This series combines handmade paper and alternative photo processes to create sculptural casts of the female figure. Handmade paper is fragile yet deceptively strong, providing a metaphor for women’s lives. The recurring imagery of wings and cages point to the duality or tension in our experience. The wings represent the yearning to fly or freedom to choose. The cages refer to limitations, either self-imposed or external restraints. The cages are often of our own making and offer a sort of protection, but at what cost?

This series explores memory, illusive and transitory, the footprint of something just past, just out of reach. Images such as old family photos and x-rays are collected and layered with handmade paper or sheer fabric. Alternative photo processes of Van Dyke brown and cyanotype allow for multiple printing so that traces of earlier layers can be seen under the surface image reflecting the passage of time. The artist uses the flexibility inherent in the processes to layer image upon image, fragment upon fragment, thereby achieving a synthesis of pattern; texture and abstraction.
