The focus of my most recent work has been batiks of the Colorado area where I spend time each summer.
I make art wherever inspiration leads me with a focus on the landscapes around my home state of Kansas home and frequent summer destination of Colorado. Each subject seems to lend itself to either the batik or one of the print methods, and sometimes both. I am also intrigued by how color, shape and line can come together in abstract compositions.
