In
1999 I moved back to Victoria, British Columbia where I was initially
introduced to weaving. Weaving has become my passion and I have
dedicated much of my time to perfecting the techniques involved
in block weaving.
The only materials I work with are wool
for the weft and linen for the warp.
I enjoy watching my creations of fiber,
colour and design move along on the loom and look forward to the
moment of "truth" when I cut the finished weaving off
the loom and view it, for the first time, in its entirety.
My pieces have been shown at various galleries
and at juried art shows. Recently I completed a commissioned work
for a couple in Chicago who wrote: "As art, your weaving
stands the test - it is continuously interesting the more we live
with it."
All my weavings function very well on the
wall and, in addition, some weavings make a striking statement
on the floor.
