I AM A SELF-TAUGHT ARTIST. I HAVE PAINTED ON CLOTHING AND GLASS IN THE PAST. NOW I AM DOING WIRE WRAPPING. USING EVERYDAY HOUSEHOLD ITEMS, I TRANSFORM THEM INTO USEFUL OBJECTS OF ART, WITH GREAT SPLASHES OF COLOR AND TEXTURE. THE COLOR IS PROVIDED THROUGH THE USE OF RECYCLED GLASS GLOBS, GLASS BEADS, STAINED GLASS AND FUSED GLASS PIECES, WHICH I MAKE MYSELF. THE COLOR IS HELD TO THE "CANVAS" WITH A FREE-FORMED SCULPTURE TECHNIQUE USING ARMITURE WIRE. THERE IS NO GLUE USED IN THIS PROCESS AS EACH PIECE IS SIMPLY WIRED ON. THE PIECES ARE ALL USEFUL AS WELL AS BEAUTIFUL ADORNING SOMEONES WALLS OR TABLES. I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS ART FOR OVER 12 YEARS. TO ASSURE THAT THE PIECES ARE UP TO MY STANDARDS AND EXPECTATIONS, I DO ALL OF THE WIRE WRAPPING MYSELF.
