Welcome






Hello all. I'm an artist/gardener. My intention is to feel about my art making as I do when I'm working in the garden--focused, peaceful and connected. I'm convinced that there are deep historical connections between the garden and creating and my work continues that tradition. I'm presently focused on the places where domesticity and wildness meet. In my mind, it's all one thing.
Please feel free to leave comments for me. I'd love to hear from you.

Here we Go Now

It is finally time for me to get in the greenhouse every day. I'm working on a new garden project with my friends Jill and David. We are growing heirloom and open pollinated vegetable and herb starts to sell at Farmers Market. I always sell tomatoes and peppers, herbs and flowers but we're doing a bigger variety. The intention is to be able to offer people some of the genetic seed treasure that heirloom & OP varieties contain. The recipients of our project will be able to save the seed from these plants and start or continue their own heirloom seed collections. I'll be posting our list soon, once everything has germinated.

art as healer

Wolfgang Laib makes beautiful installations from elemental materials.  My favorites are made from plant pollen, milk, stones, beeswax or rice.  He was educated to be a physician but came to feel that art is the supreme medicinal force.  He approaches art as a spiritual activity with the intention of healing the viewer.
