mixed media art


my style is free and abstract, focusing on colors, textures & patterns.  Edges are raw, threads are left hanging, buttons, beads and found objects are important elements.  Knitting adds layers.  I use my own hand dyed fabric, other artist's hand dyes, a few commercial fabrics, and also vintage fabrics and clothing pieces.  Serendipity is the only rule...
