Location Portland, Oregon, United States
Introduction MIXED MEDIA ARTIST "Sustainable Art, Locally Grown" -- a life-long artist I like to figure out how to make something new with items discarded from our "throw away" society. It is also called "sustainable art" which I think is as good a term as any. I use found objects (rocks, feathers, bones) and reclaimed items I find at estate and garage sales in the construction of my assemblages. I enjoy my work. Enjoy your visit! (photo by Mason Lake)

You moved the pot before the coffee stopped brewing. Do you smell the mountains or the burro?

The mountains (Mt. Hood, Mt. Jefferson & Three Sisters) because (1)I am a Pac NW coffee junkie-all my coffee is awesome &(2)coffee maker drips into a carafe.
