My great love of Nature leads me to create uplifting images of animals and plants filled with joy, movement, and humor.
As an artist I create curving, dancing lines invoking the life force as I represent the archetypal essence of each animal and plant. I find inspiration in the wild things around me and in the mythic creatures of the imagination found in Medieval manuscripts, tapestries, Celtic knotwork, and Egyptian tomb paintings. My paintings and prints are created with gouache watercolors, Sumi ink, 22-karat gold leaf, and linoleum blockprint, and often incorporate exuberant calligraphic lettering.
My desire for harmony in myself and others leads me to perform and record new arrangements of traditional and Early music on voice, Celtic harp, flutes, and recorders.
As a musician I create rich, multi-layered arrangements and compositions and sing of magical princesses, lost lovers, merry mermaids, Celtic fairies, and more. My recorded works and my performances are always created with the intent of offering healing to the listener, aided by my standing as a Reiki Master in the Usui tradition. I sing and perform with the bands Brocelïande, Avalon Rising, and Margaret & Kristoph, as a solo harper, and as a therapeutic harper with Healing Muses.
