Story-telling through quilts is a colorful
and tactile experience. Combining colors, textures, and prints
from my extensive fabric collection, I create tapestries of deep
woods, hidden trails, wild animals, seasons' rhythms, ...Traditional
piecework and crazy quilt blocks are often incorporated into
a realistic Maine scene. A semi-abstract, as well as a folk art
quality, emerges in these art quilts.
Researching primitive cultures is one of my
favorite past times. Hand painting ancient imagery onto my art
quilts conveys our mutual roots in cultures that have a reverence
and respect for nature and the feminine.
My art quilts have been collected, exhibited,
and published internationally. Please contact me for availability
of current artworks for sale, or to commission an art piece designed
specifically for your environment. I also offer offset lithographic
prints of my quilts. If my artwork can amuse, inspire, enlighten,
or pique your curiosity, then it has achieved its purpose.
