Artist Statement:

My artwork tackles the bittersweet emotions presented by the “American dream”. As a woman and person with Native American Heritage I frequently feature themes including Native assimilation issues, feminism, and the progression of American culture. My artwork causes the viewer to consider the price paid by past Americans to live in the land of the free. History is doomed to repeat itself if it is forgotten; my creations make this notion prevalent.
