Perhaps as a means of escape, much of my artwork tends to be dark, quiet, and strange - qualities that are antithetical to the bright, messy, and monotonous life I lead as a suburban mother. I make images with what is most readily available to me: my wooded yard, my two young daughters, and sometimes their pets. Solitude and surrealism are frequent themes - the former because I crave it and the latter because I appreciate the unconventional.
