My journey as an artist from the beginning has been essential and intuitive. As a lover of nature and fashion, Eco Printing, a direct contact print natural dye process using botanicals and metals on natural fibers, was an anticipated progression in my design work.  

 

Wild crafting a variety of plants native to the North Carolina region and others in combination with rust dying, Shibori techniques and hand stitching I incorporate new and reclaimed materials to create original designs. 

 

The results are organically beautiful, contemporary, craft wearable art designs as unique as the women who wear them!
