CurrentI produce hand painted or hand dyed, hand woven wearable fiber art, primarily using silk and bamboo, to be exhibited and sold at juried Fine Craft and Art shows. Currently, my work is focused on Woven Shibori, a resist dyeing technique where the pattern threads are inserted as I weave the fabric. Then those threads are pulled and tied off, compressing the fabric to provide a resist before being hand painted or immersion dyed. After dyeing, the pattern threads are removed, exposing a unique printed Shibori pattern on the woven surface. I love working with color and coming up with unexpected color combinations. The color choices and dyeing method can make the same pattern look very different, adding to the uniqueness of each scarf or shawl and making it one of a kind.
