ABOUT THE ARTIST : My work transforms dull , broken and discarded material into colorful and vibrant art . Layering and highlighting various fragments creates a unique balance of industry and art . My joy comes from finding each individual artifact and unleashing its potential by assembling unrelated elements into a cohesive whole . The beauty and brilliance of reclaimed and repurposed material is reflected in a wholeness that is stronger than the sum of its parts . The excitement and creative challenge is using ordinary items and giving them artistic relevance that is completely different from their original purpose .
