In a chaotic world, I seek spaces that induce a sense of serenity and enchantment. My Sanctum collection evokes such refuges in a series of miniature wonders; each evocative of a tiny oasis that grants access to a meditative realm. From the tingling intrigue that beckons one toward the entrance of a portal or passageway, to the sacred quiet found in the confines of a hidden garden or crystal cave, I am endlessly drawn to the mystique of otherworldly domains.

While it's impossible to touch upon all my sources of inspiration for this ongoing body of work in one blog post, here are a few categories of influences: 

 

FAIRY HOMES

 

GATES & DECORATIVE IRONWORK

KNOTHOLES & ROCK FORMATIONS

ANCIENT RUINS
