Green Palm Leaf
Each leaf tells the story of its journey through seasons of continual transformation and change.

I see the leaf as a living vessel which mirrors an aspect of impermanence within our own fragile existence.

The technique of Pate de Verre explores the subtle curves and sensual textures which express the beauty of form and structure found in nature.

Summer Greens
The intense, lush greens of summer palms describe those cool, tranquil, intimate moments of solitude experienced among masses of green leaves.

These leaf vessels, in essence, are about re-establishing an identity with nature through the process of experience.
