Night Sky The stars
of the universe are in the sky day or night but it’s only when the sun sets
and the sky darkens that we realize our sun is not the only one and we start
to see the billions of stars in the universe. Each piece of Night Sky is felted wool and manmade fibers. Each measures 14”x18” and mounted on
studio canvas. NightSky
is one of the RASP alternate image series. |

HorizonI was inspired for this piece when watching storm clouds
one day gather in the distance. It
was especially beautiful when the rays of the setting sun peeked through the
clouds. This piece is felted wool and
measures approx. 17”x 54” with web
canvas backing. Horizon
is one of the RASP alternate image series. |

Reds This
piece came together as a
compilation of different red yarns selected from several yarn color palettes
of shades of red to be incorporated into waves of red. Each panel of red is highlighted with a
deep brown wool felted cording which adds depth to each panel. The piece is approx. 51” x 33”, is
frameless and is mounted on lightweight fiberboard. |

Whimsical By
combining several different yarns together, this “whimsical” design was
born. Adding the copper tubing frame
and offsetting the inner frame from the outer frame gives it a 3-dimensional
effect. This piece mixes felted and
non-felted yarns which adds to the texture and 3-D effect. It is approx. 43”x 27”.
The copper tubing has been finished with an anti-scratch,
anti-corrosion finish. |

WanderingsThis piece was created when I wanted to
combine the stark contrast of gray and black with the softness of green and
gold. I see hills and valleys formed
by the gray and black background.
Because the yarns felted slightly different, the result was an
interesting shape with flared ends and ripples. The green and gold are added “paths” over and around the hills
and valleys. It is approx. 30” x 16” and mounted on a
1”x2” wood lattice. |
Life ChangesThe beautiful northeast fall season and the changing of
leaves was the inspiration for this piece.
It is approx. 24” in diameter and the leaves, branches and background
are felted wool. The leaves are
threaded with fine wire to give each leaf form. It is attached to a copper frame. |

there is something missing. This
piece illustrates life’s interconnections with life’s missing pieces. Each puzzle pieces is felted wool. This piece is approx. 36” x 36” and is
