Introduction	My work combines a passion for found objects with aspects of painting, sculpture, collage and assemblage. As the poet/artist I believe in the secret life of inanimate objects and natural oddities. As I listen to my inner stories I am rewarded as they manifest into my art creating their own original and unique world. If we think about art that we really care about, it’s art that tells secrets, not art that reinforces already held attitudes. I believe art should be mysterious and consuming. I live with a flock of birds and a pack of dogs in the Napa Valley, California.
