I have lived in Temecula Ca.for the last 28 years. I have taught for the last 18 yrs. I have been featured in many magazines such as Bead Unique,ArtDoll,HautePurse,BellaAmorie,CountryDesigns,FolkartTreasures,SoftDolls, 100kQuilt Challange. Beading is also a passion with me,whether it is beading on fabric or making jewelry. I've also have gone crazy over needle felting and I'am a collector of crazy quilts. I started teaching Crazy quilting 15yrs.ago which gave me the passion to start collecting them.I do love to teach and gather with kindred spirits which has help me become the person I have become today. I love seeing Women helping and creating with one another.And at times seeing a soul being healed and nurtured through ART and working with their hands. ART is for Life and is always apart of my life. I feel ART is a great way to communicate with others, it breaks all language barriers and speaks heart to heart, soul to soul. Art for me is yeilding judgement yet I know in this world judgement is all around us. So in my world I find safety,support,encouragement,and most of all respect.I always want to enjoy and have fun creating and at times walk on the WILD SIDE maybe even run.
Bead work on small pillow that is crazy patched. Beaded on corners. Pillows are such fun to make they add Art to any room. This pillow you would not want people to use as back rest!! Just a pretty to look at.
I am Fionnan from the enchanted woods of InberGlas where the rushing river Bann brings beauty to this Northern land of Dreamers. Within these woods impossibilities become possible with the magic of Dreams. Where Fairies watch the Sleeping World become awake and See a World beyond them self.
This is Needle felted work of Arty little girls that is a fun way to express your inner Art self!! Playing and blending with Hand dyed wool roving, yarn, adding pewter charms and letters to make words that inspire your inner Art Self. YOU are creating a piece of doll art that shows the World that the woman Child stills lives and loves on.
