My mastery of the tjanting tool’s organic line, paired with a unique, sophisticated color palette, allows me to create dynamic work. A life animated by natural and spiritual motifs drawn from my international studies, provides constant inspiration for my fabric art, which I now quilt, bead and embroider.
