chrysalis unveiled

Peek below the swirling chrysalis and you will discover my creative process. Unbeknownst to me, a creature has been hiding, waiting for my curious fingers to reveal her slumbering form. Patiently she waits for the breeze of reality to weave its way under her carapace and waken her from slumber.

I don’t always know where my materials will take me - creative flow is my guide, and sometimes surprising treasures emerge, blinking in the daylight. I have been exploring leather lately, and what a fascinating com-anion it has proven to be!
