Welcome to my new Web site - we are still building up the content, so please look around, let me know what you think, and come again!

As we get more organized, this will be the place to come for the latest news on my art and educator activities.

And don't forget to check out the button project update and my calendar.

This collaborative weaving was created this February during a four day residency at the School Street School in Rochester, NH. It is an illustrated story of the Solar System. Every child in this small school worked directly on this piece. I am very proud of the finished weaving as well as the cooperative way in which we worked.

I have just returned from the first VSA arts Artist-in-Residence Training in Atlanta, Georgia. Over the course of four days, we explored models for the highest level of artist and teacher collaboration for creating positive art experiences for all students.

March is a month when I am traveling again. In the early part of March I will be in northern Maine to conduct teacher training at University of Maine in Presque Isle, as well as lead school workshops for high school and middle school students in Caribou and Van Buren.

From there I go to East Rochester Annex, a small primary school in New Hampshire. We will be designing and creating five collaborative weavings that illustrate the children's favorite authors. Stay posted for pictures of these weavings as they develop.

Also during March, I will be working with Community Partners, an organization that provides support and opportunities for disabled adults. We will be making a community art piece in which every client of this 200+ person organization will participate.

The second picture I have included here is from the New Durham, NH, School. I just love this image of a girl weaving the rainbow.

And finally, I will be making progress on my own art, the button project. I have wound the warps and they are ready to be dyed. I welcome the days that I am here in my studio, grounded in my own art. This time on my own reminds me of the power and transformation of creating art. It strengthens the foundation of my work as an educator.

Thank you
