Worked in accounting for 25 years and has been working with wood since 1993 and loves the three dimensional quality of it versus the canvas. She looks at the world as one big jigsaw puzzle and doesn't believe in boundaries. Everything is interconnected. There are no frames to her wood creations. The wall is the background.
