I make visual art to explore connections between line, color, shape and spatial relationships, employing a variety of materials, which have included yarn, fabric, wallpaper, collage, paint and tape. My color palette of cool tones has been a consistent and unifying component of my work.

Exploring yarn, used in the form of crochet in a square format, often includes paint as part of these textile works. These pieces have evolved from crochet and paint on small canvases, to large canvases, to removing the canvas entirely and letting the wall hold the work. The wall has became part of the structural component of the textile compositions. In this series of works, the crochet appears to be organized, evolving with order and clarity. Yet they are made from a sort of "unregulated" geometry, that is not contemplated or considered and often results in a distorted shape. They are free flowing throughout the process, then eventually tied together until the culmination, where they are pulled tense at certain points and emerge into unexpected conclusions. The crochet stitch is humble and an unrepeatable invented pattern that is a constant of the work.

My most recent work considers my minimalistic, conceptual and formal sensibilities, using yarn to explore movement, shape and line. I am interested in exploring spatial relationships with movement, while embracing an extreme form of abstraction, stripping the textile material down to its most basic component. Through the use of a simple ball of yarn, I can use the linear element to set forth on a direct course while adopting material restraint and eliminating the structured crochet squares of the previous body of work. Through repetition and geometry, this newest work contemplates how much can be held through structure alone without the need for a personal narrative.
