Wearable Art

I am an artist, specializing in one-of-a-kind wearable art, from highly embellished gowns to painted shoes.  My style is reflective of my love of vintage clothing, and the couture details and hyper-embellishment much of it features.  The majority of my work has a retro look and feel about it, and I use a lot of reclaimed and antique textiles and trims.  I try to do one large scale, runway project a year, to feed my need for theatricality!  I also accept commissions for custom pieces.  I don't limit myself to genre; I enjoy creating one-of-a-kind pieces for any occasion or category of dress.
