“Some of my works on tulle are based on literature or art history, but certainly not all. Each piece takes a long time to complete, but the stitching relaxes me and gives me time to meditate and process things. While I was working on the one of my mother and me, I thought a lot about our relationship and how we interact, about how powerful my mother is and how she pushes me to be a powerful woman as well. I think the more time you spend on a piece and the more you put into it, the more you can get out of it. Besides the works on tulle, I also do portraits in oil.

“I use my art degree a lot in my classroom teaching too. In fact, being a teacher is a lot like being an artist; it’s about inspiring people to love something. In the case of students, it’s about inspiring them to love learning. You have to use so much creativity to engage the kids. For example, when our first grade class read Mufaro’s Beautiful Daughters, we made puppets and scenery and produced our own play based on the book. I don’t think I could have done it without my art background.”
