From the majestic presence of the Saguaros to the pinks and ochres of cochineal and soil pigments, these works are offerings—artful prayers—crafted in reverence to this desert’s more-than-human life forms. By blending synthetic paints with hand-gathered pigments and dyed fibers, I seek to tell visual stories that reflect the complexity of living in modern day and give offerings of beauty to feed the spirit of the Sonoran Desert.
