Detail of “Colony”, a mixed-media assemblage with all recycled and salvaged materials. This scarf rack found in a thrift store is slowly transforming into a series of 28 tiny textile and bead collages with embroidery highlights. When complete this will be one-half of a 34” x 34” diptych.

Last night at sunset I had time to reflect on the way the Snoqualmie originates high in the Cascades as snowmelt. Just 15 miles upriver it plummets over a 270 ft rock cliff and then slowly meanders through farmlands eventually reaching the sea. I often find myself drawn here- its mysterious energy inspires. “Be like water” a wise companion told me. I’m trying.
