My Artistic Journey

The art work you see in the gallery is part of my begining journey in exploring shape and texture.

Repeated patterns and shapes have always been an area of interest for me.

The follwing two fabric pieces:

Both pieces utilize the repetition and variations on one stitch. The addition of pieces of fabric attached to the background (applique) add interest and emphasis of the shapes related to the theme.

In the creation of art work, each experience builds on and influences the one before.
