First Friday Reception to Meet the Artist:
May 1, 2026 | 5:00-8:30 pm
203 N Washington Street, Spokane
There is a school of thought that artists must have only one recognizable style but I have too much artful energy to adhere to that 'rule'. If I have a distinct trademark, I would label it 'eclectic'; I abhor waste and therefore get excited about reusing and upcycling as much as possible. When I crochet rugs from all recycled fabrics (see my regular display here within the gallery), I save bits and pieces for use in my mixed media paintings. This method, along with using only what I already have on hand, is how I've created this series, Threadscapes II. I am elated to find the perfect scrap of lace, thread, rope, shoestring, yarn, dried flowers from my garden, pencil shavings, dried paint scraps, old gel medium I've sculpted, stamp-carving remnants, upholstery samples, curtains, doilies, bits of jewelry, etc, to emulate nature's delight in each piece; the options are excitingly endless. I invite you to look closely and enjoy the texture!
