Tapestries
Tapestry is the most time-consuming technique I do. In tapestry, the warp threads on the loom are completely
covered by the weft – the fibers that are woven on the warp – creating color shapes. I did very few tapestries in my early work, but recently have enjoyed
using tapestry in a photo-realism fashion, creating landscapes and even portraits of our dogs. Because of the time I spend weaving these tapestries, I
sometimes have a digital image printed of any one of my tapestries on paper-backed fiber, so that more people can enjoy my tapestry work. But, I also will do a tapestry on commission for a special subject matter when requested.
