My art begins with the human body, explores the disembodied figure, and ultimately contemplates its abstracted spiritual essence.  For the past 30 years I have been drawing, painting and sculpting.  The subject of my work is the human portrait and figure.  This trio of dresses represents three centuries of women’s fashion and harks back to my days as the owner of a contemporary fashion boutique opened in 1977 in Thornes Market called Chona.
