When Covid-19 struck and the world shut down, it was a time of fear, uncertainty, and isolation. At first these emotions crushed my creativity. As a veteran artist this lack of creative spirit was devastating. Still working a full-time job in healthcare made the apprehension even stronger. I quickly became desperate for hope. From this, blossomed a simple glass flower which led to experimenting in very different ways to get a sense of movement and capture my representation of nature’s beauty.
My florals are made in various forms, on copper stems to be “planted” in the garden, as a sculpture on a base, or hung on a wall. Beautiful on their own or in a cluster creating a lovely wall installation. The possibilities of flower designs as well as presentation develop and grow with each new work I create.
I have added a selection of birds as ornaments, small sculptures and installation. Living near the coast on Long Island has inspired my newest shore birds collection.
My solo show The Joy fo Wonder; Finding Awe In Times Of Uncertainty brings together many of my floral and bird creations in a series of 5 installations.

A dandelion has released its seeds and as they float away they bring new life. My dreams have come to life with this exhibit and this installation.
Love is within us all. Look within to discover the depth of your love.
