Artist Statement
I often combine visual art with literature, poetry, collage, altered books, puppetry, photography, music, videography, and computer technology. When I look through magazines or photographs, I begin to imagine a story unfolding. Sometimes I imagine a story from the song that I’m singing or playing on my ukulele. For example, the song Back Home Again might lead me to look for pictures of roads, rivers, mountains, or homes. And put them together to make a collage. What does home look like to me? Perhaps a barn, Amish buggy, and a field of corn. Oh, and don’t forget the Susquehanna River!
