Rhus Radicans is the Latin name for
poison ivy. This piece looks at the issue
of gossip. Where it comes from (the ears
and the brain) and where it goes (out the
mouth). It will kill you if you let it!
This piece was created using new and
recycled fabric, hand made felt and
beading.
In "Big Eye, Little I", looks at the ego,
always a conscious battle . How
much control do we want to give it?
With practice very, very little!
This piece was created using new and
recycled fabric, felting, beading and
trim.
"Position 10" Self Portrait
|
This piece was inspired by a piece of wool,
which I dyed for a fiber study group I
belong to. The blue wool was the 10th
position on the color wheel, hence the title
"Position 10". All the colors in this piece are
related to that one piece of wool. This
piece incorporates new and recycled
fabric, buttons, felting, beading, and a real
shirt is used as her blouse.

This piece was created as a way of
describing the color purple as a "feeling
and sound” to someone that can not see.
Being a very visual person I could never
imagine my life with out my sight. A gift I
am very grateful for. I sometimes
wondered how I might describe (if I were
ever asked) a color, to someone who has
never seen a color. This is if my first of many
attempts at doing this in an art piece.
Recycled fur coat, natural dyed wool,
machine embroidered, sewn, hooked and
embellished with elastic and recycled glove.
