Each sculpture is a unique construction of handmade paper, various woods, metals,  and found objects.

• Handmade paper:  The paper is made in my own studio from cottons, flaxes and more exotic fibers including banana leaf fiber and hemp.

• Wood:  Woods are largely collected from the acreage around the studio and tend to reflect their rural Northwest heritage-- firs, cedars hawthorns, maples and a variety of fruit woods. A few works contain bamboo, some grown at our former home in Nevada.

• Metal:  Copper (often hammered) is the most frequently used metal but iron, aluminum and other types may be present. 

• Found objects: Found objects are serendipitous and have included CD's, metal and ceramic fasteners and whatever else has caught my eye and was aesthetically appropriate.
