ongoing collection of hand drawn images from my sketchbook, ipad, and computer. updated regularly, added to frequently. some old, most new. the ramblings of a designer, playing around with mediums, learning new tech, trying things out and evolving.
along with having been a designer for 15+ years, most of my pursuits outside of work are also creative. i enjoy a wide variety of making, and rarely feel intimidated tackling something new. last year I started woodworking with my husband, adding to the many 3D and CNC projects we've completed. owning a 110 year old house has prompted me to learn plastering. I hosted an east coast historical preservation plasterer for a local class teaching the process to 20+ students. sewing, embroidery, photography, drawing, painting and calligraphy are just a few of the other hobbies i've maintained over the years.
