"Constellation of Light" Helix form, 22" wide x 8'4" long. The biggest surprise was the variety of shadows, this one from the floor, like a nautilus. What a gift to find after hours and months of work. Made from bamboo, glass, steel, light, shadows, and a whole lot of heart, spirit, and patience.

From a series I’m calling “Constellation of Light”. The Saturn lamp is a new form. I’m loving the shadows it casts.

Lots of stitching this morning! Made some groovy little pins to help with spacing. I love that everything I am touching grew in the earth💕

I’m honored be interviewed by Bold Journey Magazine, a publication dedicated to sharing experiences, and insights to inspire and learn. They invited me to reflect on my path creative. Check the full interview here along with some of my work from over the years:
