I am an easily distracted artist, which explains the wide range of mediums I work in. My studio is in the cozy basement of our house in Toronto. I’m in the basement because Adam was sick of helping me clean spilled paint off the carpets and the “twack” noise he encounters when vacuuming from sucking up spilled beads. And we won’t even start on the melted wax in the drain issue. I like it down here, nestled beside the pantry and the christmas tree box. You never know when it will come in handy to have condensed soup and arm’s-width away.
I’m relatively new to the online art scene - I opened my shop in March 2007. I had to start selling all the things I make to keep my hands busy because my Mom hinted that she is running out of storage space for the finished projects I keep sending her under the guise of gifts. One can only have so many candle holders, after all. So I have collected my random creations in the Sixth & Elm shop in the hopes that I can spread the love, because my basement is getting kind of full.

The children are waiting! Please tell them the story about the bald frog with the wig:

uh, sorry... what did I miss?
