I was born with the need and desire to create. I view the dream world as reality. I am inspired there by information that comes both verbally and non-verbally. They are gifts and I honor and acknowledge them through my art. I am only the co-creator. For a long period in my life the extent of my creativity was solely for myself and then it was hidden or given away. As I grew in age, knowledge and spirituality it became clear to me that true acknowledgement of the gifts given me meant that I must share them. I must become vulnerable! The more I opened myself and risked sharing my work, the more the door to the dream world opened wider. I had made a wonderful discovery – it was as if the two worlds were connected. Now, I know they are one of the same! My work is my pleasure and reflects my experiences from these two worlds. I see now that my purpose is to share the pleasure, the harmony, the balance, the gifts, and the work.

I have dared to dream and share; I invite all to do the same. We are given gifts that are waiting to be acknowledged and shared. This recognition will bring teachings and rewards too numerous to count.
