I am acknowledging aspects of my life and family, the aspirations as well as the misfortunes. As social beings we participate in many varied groups, but the family has one of the most powerful influences.

COMMENTS ON FIBER ART
It is exciting what is happening within the field today that is called "fiber". We identify it by its materials, yet these are not necessarily the materials that these artists utilize. Some of us identify it by the techniques that are common to the field, but this is not strictly adhered to either.
