Teapots in the Sunlight.


One element that has become important in my paintings is fabric. I like that it suggests a time period by the age of its pattern. I like how the fabric can be extended into several areas of the composition. I enjoy playing with the patterns in more then one area of the picture. I am also a weaver, so the fact that woven cloth has become a visual factor in my paintings is something I think I will continue to push. The idea of combining the two forms in some way will continue to grow.
