DOOR #1
© 2007

My passion as a fiber artist is portraying landscapes in fiber. I was fortunate in
2005 to be chosen as an artist in residence in Balatonfured, Hungary. What most
inspired me during my residency was the architecture. I lived in a guest
house named Floras Fogado, which had wonderful old doors and windows and
I took lots of photos of them for future fiber art renderings.
The wonderful textures and almost musical handle on this door begged to be
interpreted into fiber and the hand-marbled silk dupioni fabric, along with some
decorator fabrics and fabric paints seemed perfectly suited for this homage to a
door which I imagine has quite a history.
