Booth #: GN5COver the past 45 years,as a self-taught artist, I've explored and enjoyed working in various mediums. In the late 1990s I began a journey into what has become my passion creating MASKS. My inspiration comes from my love of nature, animals and the spiritual aspects of several primitive cultures, combined to form my unique style. I have won many awards but the one I'm most proud of is the Sustainability Award from the Smithsonian Institution in 2018 because of my use of recyclable and natural materials. Most of my animals are on the endangered list.
