Aloha!! Creativity has been my journey. It all started with my mother. She would get out the paints and frame our creations to sell in the driveway when we were kids. What a beautiful way to meet the world. Mosaic entered my life in 1996, when I was lucky enough to attend Dale Chihuly’s “Pilchuck” glass school in Stanwood Washington. There were many great opportunities to sell art while honing my skills. I personally sold mosaics on Thursdays at the late Kona Village resort for years, had a great customer following at the Gallery on Bainbridge Island Washington, and was commissioned to create a mosaic for Islandwood, an environmental education center also on Bainbridge Island. After a 17 year hiatus to raise my child, I am back at it. I have taught classes at various locations throughout the years. The Bellevue Art Museum, community spaces, private residences and in my personal studio. It’s a tedious art form that has grounded me in unexpected and magical ways!
