:
hey there!

I'm a stay at home mother who does this art stuff somehwat full time.

I'm self taught in my works besides the dye and print making - which I have had the blessing of having a really wonderful group of teachers in my past <3... Everything you see around this website is my passion and it's what i love and putting my love into.
...and I'm a freak for symmetry most of time. Its nature, music, mathematics, and universe that can call themselves as part of inspiration.

I've been sewing since I can remember- I have a wonderful mom who I learned all my tricks from --sew it seams to be in my jeans. that was a bad sewing joke- anyway- I love recycling old clothing and vintage fabrics, making skirts, and I'm a fabric addict. I've been a professional seamstress for about 10 years..... I started selling my clothing at a local shop here in 1996, then gradually expanded into outdoor festivals and shows where i sold my goods to for gas and food get to the next show following bands all the way to california and back! my touring days are over, but I'm still here sewing! and dyeing! and painting...and whatever else..
This goes to dyeing where I needed to make my own colored fabrics and it just grew from there- I've been tie dyeing for about 9 years,mentored by some great folks and some good old fashioned trial and error..... batik i taught myself in 2002 and i spent a few years honing it and learning the ins and outs of beeswax.

The drawing stuff i've been doing forever. My dad used to bring home paper and pens and pencils from work for us constantly as kids- graph paper especially- and it was like christmas- my escape became drawing- i llustrated my own books when I was 8 years old, and had a published comic strip when I was 14. I love love love cartoons and comics and drawing too- anime especially. My love for psychedelic music came with hearing Cream on a Freedom Rock commercial- with my dad following suit in letting me listen to his Cream tapes and rediscovering his HAIR broadway soundtrack... the wild psychedelic cover art of disraeli gears started to make me look at art in a whole new way. then came the grateful dead. and that was it from there.... I picked up painting in high school, and started up on the digital graphics in 2000ish... self taught.... and now here I am.
On the side, I also make up all the merchandise for Juggling Suns. That be my husband, too.

I'm just a very very small scale business here- where things are made with care and love and its a tribute to the spirit. I hope you enjoy your peek around these parts..

I feel that making art in any form is one form of plugging in the great cord of the universe and turning on the power-so to speak- connecting us all within strands of love, light and heart.
The song twilight dance written is an intense exploration of sound and beauty that I have always loved and held special to me.

It's been twilight dance designs since 2000, and I'm thrilled to be here now.

"have a good time, all the time" -viv savage....

"...we start by way of reflecting our suffering and our karma and our disturbances and resistances to life's conditions. And then we evolve to a point where rather than a mirror to society- we become a window to divinity. And I think being a window to divinity is more important and arrives at what I call true and pure art- which is no art at all, its just Heart.'
