About Me:

I am a self-taught artist born and raised in Brazil. I live in Annapolis, Maryland (USA), with my hubby.

All I do is hand made, and I use a lot of recycled materials with the textile pieces I make. I am a big fan of Frida Kahlo. When I first began selling online, it was Frida that "got me started" (Long story...)

I hope you enjoy my creations. A lot of my images are stored on Flickr...check it out!
