Currently my work is inspired by the Victorian Obsession with Nature, and the art of collecting and displaying ones' passions.

 

I believe that some objects can carry a personal history through a family from year to year.  I hope that I can make art that a family member can buy to be handed down the line.  Something bought on a whim that becomes the platter for the turkey or sits on the mantel.  "Crazy old Uncle Larry bought that peculiar spider platter, and we just can't seem to part with it," I would like to be a part of that.
