Artist Statement
I work in multiple formats with intense colors and dynamic forms that pass through the time and space of my art, shape-shifting between figurative and abstract. My art is represented in numerous public and private collections in the USA, Mexico and the South Pacific. I am based in Tucson, AZ, USA and Alamos, Sonora, Mexico. My husband, Ron Perry, and I are tribal art dealers. We travel and collect in Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and other countries on the Pacific Rim.
