Design

Website Design

I am an advocate of clean, elegant design. By that I mean design that works well, that doesn't get in the way of the user's experience and that adds context to the message of the website.

Print Media Design

If an individual or an organization has a website, their printed materials should have some visual connection to the site.

Art

Visual Art

I am an interdisciplinary artist.

My visual arts practice is diverse.
I make art using ancient techniques and materials - stone & glass mosaics, fibers & fabrics, encaustic paints, and gourds. I work with contemporary techniques and materials - digital photography, digital video, inkjet and laser printers.

Performance Art

I tell stories. Stories entertain and inform. Story provides context and context aids understanding. Story is central to human existence; elemental to our self- and other-awareness.

Story is how we remember our realities.

Other work

Writing

I am constantly writing. I journal about my artistic practice; write articles, stories, and op-ed pieces; and explore ideas and issues.

Sustainable living

I work at being sustainable in my art and professional practices and my life.

Most people I know are talking about sustainability in regard to the climate and environment. I think that is a rather narrow path to walk. Sustainable living involves more than just dealing with environmental issues.
