Commercial fabrics
Painting, fused appliqué, machine quilting

I am interested in manipulating commercially printed fabrics with the use of painting and dying, to create fiber work that references traditional quilting, but pushes the medium into the realm of representational art. I strive for uncluttered simplicity, and imagery that invites closer inspection and quiet contemplation.
