textile mixed media

Working with fibre in all its forms is very meditative. Stitch upon stitch, loop after loop.
I create using yarn, fabric, thread and occasionally paint.

I am inspired by the duality of nature, mythology and the interconnectivity of all life. Currently the forest is my muse.

After few initial marks on paper or cloth I launch right into a piece. Each piece is its own experiment that evolves organically. I add other media and alter as the piece tells me what it wants.

Pieces grow and change as I work. I allow them to become what they want to be.

I will have demonstrations of rug hooking and Needle Punch techniques.
