I create figures from cloth. My goal is to capture emotion in each piece. The costuming of my figures is simple, and intended to capture a sense of time and place. I often find inspiration in vintage photographs of women and children of the American South.
I hand dye most of my fabrics, often using botanicals. I also like to incorporate vintage textiles, favoring those that have yellowed with age. Old lace, handkerchiefs, and even curtains may find their way into my pieces. I use mohair locks from my goats for hair.
Fall Art Safari is always fun at Crucible Glassworks! A fresh harvest of Glass pumpkins and Glass gourds await visitors..as well as our Glass interpretations of the traditional NC Face jug..there is “someone for everyone”! Face jugs are named individually and are always a limited edition-one-of-a-kind…
Glass demonstrations and cool guest Artists will help make this Safari one of the best yet! Come join the fun!!
