I live an artist’s life and I have it made.
I create for a living, to laugh, and to soothe my soul. My home and my studio are like ever-evolving installations - places where my mind and my hands just wander free.

Agency Headquarters
For an ad agency, ready for a re-image, two adjacent warehouse spaces were gutted and primed, with historic details left exposed. Furnishings were custom, sustainably made from compressed sorghum and recycled resins, while light fixtures showcased a local artisan. An urban artist painted, on panels of compressed straw, bold graphics that highlighted the agency’s creative process. The result is lively, modern and clean, with a touch of urban edge -- the perfect story for one of the city’s premier ad agencies.

Eco-Friendly and Off the Grid
For a family retreat, bordering the Florida everglades, eco-sensitivity was the goal. The master plan called for all natural-materials, systems fully off the grid, and a goal of bio-diversity that would return the land to its original wetlands condition.
