Why “indiefinable”?

Saying “thanks”

When asked by others what I make, I often struggle to explain my creations, my style, and my interests in just a few short words. As a true dual-natured Gemini, my styles are often in direct contradiction to each other. I love cute fluffy birdie crafts just as much as I love tough, grungy graffiti. It’s part of a varied nature in myself that I bring to my work and my life, and makes applying one label or definition impossible. The result is a world of creations that has true thought, time, and heart in every piece.

Part of all sales of my Ohio-centric Collection are donated to the Mid-Ohio Food Bank, to support their efforts in feeding hungry families right here in our community. Hunger is not something that only happens in other parts of the world; it happens right next door, every day, especially to children who are helpless to provide for themselves. I hope that by using my given abilities for art and web presence, and by your greatly appreciated purchases and community pride, together we can help this organization bring much-needed joy into the lives of those around us. I know first-hand the Good that foodbanks bring to their communities, and I know what it’s like to be a child on the other side. So of all the charities to which I give of my time and energy, I chose this  as the direct recipient of my creative energies.
