Portfolio
Having had strong creative impulses my whole life, I have explored a wide range of artistic media. Some, like stained glass and beading, I quickly determined weren’t for me. Others, such as quilting, acrylic pour painting, and woodturning, I enjoyed for a while before moving on. The techniques and styles that resonate with me, however, have become integral to my current artistic expression. I have organized my work into categories, though there is often significant overlap between them.
One might think these pursuits are more than enough to keep me busy and happily occupied, but I fully expect that my repertoire will continue to expand. My creativity knows no bounds, and I am always open to discovering new forms of artistic expression.
Inspiration from Jesica
Traditional
Wall art rooted in classic mosaic tradition: stained glass, ceramic tile, and glass-on-glass pieces, built one tiny piece at a time.
Garden Art
Built to actually survive outdoors (learned that one the hard way!). Birdbaths, totems, and garden pieces that bring color to any yard, rain or shine.
Metal & Glass
Where welding meets mosaic: sculptural pieces that pair metal fabrication with fused and stained glass.
Three-Dimensional
Vases, sculptures, and dimensional forms that take mosaic off the wall entirely.
Multimedia
Laser-cut, CNC-crafted pieces that layer wood, glass, and resin into something I couldn't have made five years ago.
Painting with Glass
An exacting, painterly style of mosaic: each piece built like a painting, one sliver of glass at a time.
Fluid Art
Acrylic pour paintings from an earlier chapter. I've moved on, but these are still out in the world and available while supplies last.
Fused Glass
Vases, sculptures, and dimensional forms that take mosaic off the wall entirely.
Process in Motion

materials to finished masterpieces.
