I am using recycling materials, plaster, mix media and strong colors on canvas. I collect waste materials around the house and mix it with old jewelry, embroidery and hand made beadworks I buy at local markets on my travels to Asia. With that I let go and create interesting free floating compositions of forms and colors.

My message is how to transform ugliness into beauty, darkness into light ... some sort of alchemy.

Symbolically outwardly - is a recycle message, an eco-statement: Use waste more creatively to make this planet a beautiful place.

Inwardly and - very importantly - it is about transforming our inner selves, the gross negative emotions into their essential qualities, trough awareness and meditation.

I just love to do that ...
perfect imperfections ...
beautiful and uplifting creations ...
light, clean and crisp atmospheres ..."
