Welcome to Painted Turtle Design!

This new, 2024 version of the website will be a bit different than the old one.

My personal artwork has ranged from textiles, through mixed-media collages, to medieval calligraphy and illuminations, to a variety of painting and printmaking. The thread that has run through all of it is a deep love and connection to nature and the plants and animals that share our world.

The second thread is a strong and enduring respect and passion for the art history of all cultures throughout the world – but in particular the works of Medieval European and Mediterranean artists and scribes.
