"Wavelengths"
2007
28"W x 23"H
NFS
Embroidery and layering with sheer fabrics provide a sense of varying depths in this design, in which parallel zigzag lines are reflected and combined into
diamonds and X-shapes.

“Bermuda Daze”
2008
30”W x 24”H
$600
The alternating zigzag patterns in this piece remind me of the edges of the waves as they wash up onto the beach, and the bright blues, corals and yellows echo the hues of the water, sand and sun. Lines of stitching in various colors resemble the trails that the receding waves leave behind on the sand.

“Strokes”
2008
28”W x 21”
NFS
Graffiti fascinates me. My imagination produced these spontaneous “letters,” which seem to proclaim a message and also, perhaps, to bind together the overlapping strips on which they rest.

“Regalia III: the Sorcerer’s Robe”
2008
39.5”W x 41.5”H
NFS
This design is more restful than some of my earlier zigzag pieces, because the lines in this are more uneven and more widely separated. I altered the colors of some of the fabrics with lines of stitching and with iridescent paint.

“Katrina’s Wake”
2007
11”W x 19.5”H
$200
The separate layers and shapes in this piece seemed to me to have come together spontaneously, as though carried for a while, but finally cast away, by the wind and water. The only surviving human touch is a trail of stitching.
