  About Me 

 

Thanks for visiting my website. I have been interested in multi-media art since I was a child. When I was six years old,  my mother taught me how to crochet and do macrame. Since then I have made soap, painted, made candles, done batik, pottery, wood carving, dress-making, (the buckskin dress pictured here is one of my earlier creations) and more. But my heart and passion is in beadwork and working with leather. I was taught how to bead by a Oji-Cree elder in Northern Ontario, Canada. As I was learning, I was inspired by my Indigenous friends and over the past 40 years I have explored Russian bead-weaving, French bead embroidery and African beadwork. My designs are sometimes unusual but always uniquely mine.

I really enjoy painting and when my eyes are tired of beading, I pull out my paints and create beautiful keepsake boxes with nature themed paintings. I always go that extra step and add fancy feet, latches and intricate embellishments.
