Sections of various pieces of artwork have been "harvested". There's an early drawing from my teenage-years sketch book (1974) and a portion of a serigraph print from a university printmaking class (1983). A collagraph (1988) of Bruges row-houses is now stacked as a vase. I did a still life (1998) in pen & ink with watercolour alongside with my high school students. The pieces are assembled and rearranged into this layered encaustic still life. The constant in my work: flowing lines and flowers.

Encaustic, mixed media: early pen & ink, serigraph, collograph, pen & ink with watercolour; on cradle board
