From September 1 through the end of the month, my work will be on display in the first floor north gallery of McGuffey Art Center. Below is an overview of my work that is hanging on one of the walls. It is a continuation of my "Urban Voyeur" series, and depicts scenes captured in downtown Charlottesville, VA. The other wall of the show is a combination of my ceramics and more experimental finer work. To read about them and see an over view Click Here! Here are some of the pieces included in the show.

The examples and details that follow show how this can be an effective way of adding layers and textures when accompanied by additional piecing, layering, and stitching. Details.

To see videos about my interviews, and processes Fiber ArtFor about ten years now, I have been a full-time fiber artist. My subjects reflect a poignant moment of time and my reaction to that moment. This work is a combination of photography; “what” I see, and my handwork; “how” I see. My camera records the facts of the moment while the fabric and stitching add the focus, texture, and emotion to the scene. To see about my art prior to 2023 Categories |
