discovery. The very nature of papermaking has one hiking across the countryside
looking for
potential fiber and blending the worlds of science and art.
Using rich, bold
color and repeating patterns, I weave my handmade paper
with an assortment
of mixed papers and found objects. Layering color and texture,
I let paper tapestries
emerge to become meditation pieces. My love for the Silk Road
cultures has
influenced both the appearance of my work and the manner in which it is
created. I’ve
come to respect the process as well as the result.
