Her minimalist, textural work seeks to bring craft into the context of fine art by literally stitching thread through artist’s canvas, presenting what was historically a women’s medium in the context of modern painting.

Her art has been featured by Anthropologie, Real Simple, Emily Henderson, Clever and Parachute Home. less
