“Beading is a metaphor for my life, it’s about the process. I start with some materials (beads and thread), and put them together to make small parts of what will later become a finished piece. I work to connect what I have until it fits together in a way that appeals to me. I work intuitively, and it’s my dialog with the piece as it emerges that allows it to evolve into its final form. The slow process of beading is a meditation where the known and unknown merge."
