Artist Statement
Each of my pieces is a whimsical representation of old European villages. I’ve added vibrant colours to the homes, creating lively buildings, lights and flying flags that draw the viewer in for a closer look. Every street scene is designed to spark your imagination—making you wonder who might live in each house or which stores the villagers might visit. The buildings and bridges are sewn using a blanket stitch to give the artwork a folky style. I embroidered flowers on some pieces, inspired by the potted plants and blooming flowers I saw while traveling in Italy.
