I grew up in Vermont on the edge of a patch of woods. As a child I would wander around the fields and forests, picking wildflowers to return home to my mother. These are some of my most precious memories of my formative years. Having worked with glass for over 10 years, with my art hanging in private collections across the country, I decided I needed to branch out into a new medium. Drawing upon my wanderings into nature, I seek to capture the essence of the leaves and flowers that I love so much in a plaster casting. Like a fossil unearthed from an architectural dig, my castings reflect a brief moment in time. Made with the finest plaster and colored with minerals and pigments mined from some of the last remaining quarries in France, I have found another way to express my love and joy for nature. I am a self-taught artist on a never ending journey to create something that will speak to your heart and bring beauty into your home.
