“I’ve woven many things, but nothing gives me more pleasure than rugs and rug weaving. It is a continual challenge, offering a variety of techniques as well as studies in design and color. I find inspiration in so many forms; patterns found in nature, folk art, music, fabric and pottery.”
The process of weaving can be very meditative and grounding. This aspect has always appealed to me. Weaving is also very technical and mathematical, and because it is so technical, I have to know exactly where I am going before I get there.
Michigan’s Endangered Wildflowers
First and foremost, I am a weaver and I speak in yarn and color. Speaking in this language of fiber can be a challenging endeavor, but the fiber speaks to me too. This current series of woven panels, so named, is “A Weaver’s Journal of Endangered Wildflowers”.
These smaller works are weavings that are done with an intuitive voice. I paint a stretched canvas, warp the canvas as if it were a loom, and begin to weave! I use a lot of found objects, buttons, beads, feathers, twigs, etc. Some of the warp is left unwoven for effect. These Smaller Works are perfect in a grouping or on a small wall all by themselves! They also make great gifts!
