I began my weaving career by replacing cane seats in antique chairs, but soon felt the need to be more creative. After meeting a basket weaver and viewing his work, I began designing and weaving contemporary baskets. Eventually, I began applying my talents to hard-shelled gourds, which I design, cut, and decorate according to their specific shape.
By altering traditional styles, techniques, and materials, my art has become uniquely my own. Many of my accent materials are gleaned from a walk in the forest or along the shores of a stream or lake. Painting classes have allowed me to add another aspect to my gourd art. I draw inspiration from the spectacular beauty of Montana.
Whether using a gourd, antler, pine needles, philodendron sheaths, horse hair, stones, or beads, incorporating nature's treasures into a composition is a gratifying challenge. Now, over twenty years later, I am still experimenting and captivated with designing and creating vessels.
My studio is located in the shadow of Red Mountain on the family ranch in Cameron, Montana.
