In my fiber art, I try to create moods with color and texture that sooth or stimulate. Dyeing silk fabric in a palette of aqua and ocean colors provides raw material for exploration of texture in fabric. Manipulation of the surface using a faux-chenille technique replicates the overlapping ripples and waves in a body of water. A continuing theme in my work is fascination with the sea. The ocean’s ability to engage all of the senses and instill calm and exhilaration simultaneously is a never-ending source of solace.
