THE ARTWORKS
Jute canvas
I love working with burlap, a rough, lively material that reminds me of the potato sacks I grew up with on my parents' farm. Each fiber carries the memory of working the land and the simple life of the countryside. Working with this material in my creations weaves a link between my past and my art, blending memory, texture and personal expression.
