# About me

I work primarily in traditional mediums using Celtic and Medieval themes. My recent work is inspired by Medieval illuminated manuscripts, Japanese woodblock prints, Art Nouveau, and Native American art.

I recently stumbled upon pyrography and realized that it was a perfect match to my designs. I love the character and earthy feel that the wood adds to my work. The fact that my finished pieces can be used either as decorative art or as functional items also appeals to me.

Wow, somebody else who burns on wooden spoons. I'd been told other people did it, but you are the first I've seen :) (Smile) I like them, by the way. I especially like that you use both sides of the spoon.

Thanks :) (Smile) I got the idea to do it on spoons from an artist here on DA. She's pretty awesome too. Check her out
