Statement of Purpose: The Art of Play 
My art is driven by an unrelenting desire to encourage play and stimulate creativity through the process of play. My work is site specific and program driven. My work is based on a hybrid of concepts derived from community art projects, installation pieces, and activities, combined with a strong foundation in education and child development. My work is: the art of play. Children who are given the permission, place, and materials to engage in play develop social skills and inquisitive, creative minds, which in turn enriches the social fabric of our culture. 
"Happy are the painters, for they shall not be lonely. Light and colour, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end, or almost to the end, of the day."   
--Winston Churchill
