I am a lover of the alive line - pencil, pen, brush and word -
of expression, connection and communication in all its forms.
It all began with the alphabet. My fascination with letters led me to calligraphy, book making, big brush gestures and collaborative performance art.
Illustrated journaling and visual blogging have also offered fresh and immediate ways to engage.
I invite you to explore the lines of connection offered here.
May they awaken the aliveness within us all.

I am painting the inner landscape in response to Thomas Hubl's teachings.
I have been writing these for the past year, often just after waking.
It has become a way to tune in to the world - and myself.
The 5 - 7 - 5 syllable constraint has been satisfying to play within.
Then I began to add a brushstroke.
I write and illustrate for children because I trust the process of gathering these stories, in all their complexity, and then distilling them down to what is essential. That's what children see.

Over the years I have collaborated with musicians, dancers and storytellers in performance. I am the visual voice, responding to the moment. leaving mysterious tracks behind.
