Image Statement: Creating art is my way of focusing on our bond with the natural world. In the sacrificial domestic linens of my Under the Maple series, I share the essence of a majestic Big Leaf Maple I see from my studio. This living artwork keeps me rooted in the ever-changing Pacific NW rainforest, where each season tells its story.
