shaman

continuing the quilt series -- made from raffia, rug canvas, metal, chinese amber, sweet gum seeds, carpet warp, and wood - this piece represents the mystical in our lives - among certain tribal peoples the shaman is the person that uses magic to cure illness, fortell the future, and control spiritual forces -- it is the protection that is afforded us

dalia - thers's one in every crowd

this is a piece that i created out of printed fabric, fired clay, metal, sterling silver, carpet warp, and tree fungus -- it represents the fact that among all peoples, there is always a diversity -- someone who sees things differently, who stands out for there independent views -- we all like to think that we are much the same but in reality aren't we all, really one in every crowd?

solo exhibit in buda

i will be having a solo exhibit at the buda tourism office in buda, texas for the month of september -- the office is located at 880 main street -- please come and view the art as well as spend some time in historic buda -- buda offers a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the hectic life of nearby austin and san antonio and is always an enjoyable place to visit -- hope to see you there
