ARTIST STATEMENT
My garden is the inspiration for my creations. While musing on the next piece to make in 2021, the mass of echinacea/coneflowers in my garden caught my eye. So many colors and textures flowing through my flower bed with a funky spiky seed head that feeds the finches in the fall & winter. I’ve become obsessed with them and making a garden full.
