Fashion, handbags, color, painting, mixed media, collage, sewing - All of my very favorite things that make my heart sing!
I've had a lifelong insatiable creative bug that I inherited from my Grammy, Georgia. For the last 30 years, although I have had a day job, I have been creating for my home, exploring DIY artistic projects with my two remarkable daughters and hand making what I hoped were the ideal, most splendid gifts. I adore giving the perfect present and I believe with all my heart that the one of a kind, hand made treat is ever so special because of the thought, effort and love that went into crafting it.
Whenever I can carve out a little time for myself, I am in my studio dreaming up pieces that bring me joy. I have experimented with different mediums and formats and although I have enjoyed them all, I was inspired by a book to paint canvas and transform it into a one of a kind handbag. I have now rolled all of my passions into one and because I am all about "more is more," a single one of my bags can contain as many as 30 different hand painted fabrics. Creating and wearing my whimsical, eclectic, funky, playful bags makes me happy and my dream is that they will bring others joy too.
