About Me

My photo
Albuquerque, NM, United States
I have been weaving Contemporay Fine Art Tapestries for over 20 years, raising a family in the lovely Southwest. I want to show process which usually gets a back seat to product and share the trials and tribulations as well as the joy and excitement of the creation of art out of a bunch of strings. How remarkable!

Spring is almost Over?!! Because it already feels like summer here in the South West!!

It's been way too long since my last post so of course so much has happened.
  My 2cd Solo Tapestry Show at the Weyrich gallery was in February . It was quite successful even though we didn't get picked up by any publications like we were last year. here are a few pics.


The Orange and Gold tapestry "FOUR LANDSCAPES" is on layaway!
The turquoise and yellow tapestry "Window Shrine" inspired a lovely client to commission a tapestry with softer colors and to fit his space .
Here is a picture of that in progress and finished!
 Of course this took a bit of time. But it was well received by all.All of my clients and collectors get what I like to call "Provenance books" which I was inspired to do from the Antiques Roadshow. ( they are coming to ABQ in August and I sent in for tickets which is by lottery. I really want to win the lottery this time!!) The book contains articles about me and the work as well as maintenance instructions for the tapestry.

all the while I was getting ready for a solo show at a Frame Shop Gallery which would include my mixed media pieces as well as small tapestries. The week before the showI had an opportunity for a television interviewabout the show with State wide morning show "GOOD DAY NEW MEXICO. Here are some pics of the show and of the cameramen shooting as well as flyer.


and here is a link to the interview    http://www.kob.com/article/stories/S3387502.shtml?cat=11121#.U1bexSiPA22    . 
Well I will try and make a new post soon as this show comes down May 1 st, with some pics of the mixed media work and all the other news that is going on.
Instead of back to the loom however its back to work at the gallery!
