Ardyth,
I am in awe of your work. I do a similar type of work, but at a very beginning level. I love creating texture and color in fabric and paper.
I would love to see your work in person.
If you ever do a class in the Kentucky area please email me and let me know.
Keep up the inspiring work..thank you for sharing your artistry.

What wonderful art. What inspires you to create forms with silk, paper and paint? Do the colors you choose for a project mean anything to you when you first start to create one? or does feeling/meaning and emotion evolve with the length of the project? How do you know when you have finished a project? or does it let you know?

Hi Ardie! You will remember me from our shared studio days in Herndon in the distant '80s. Sarah was here at my gallery last week to help me get on line. I am exhibiting here on Canyon Rd and also buying the gallery from previous owner. Your web site brought back fond memories, as well as thrilled me with what you're doing now. Wow! My work has grown as well, quite different from what you knew of it in Herndon. You can access out web site at www.collectorsguide/rggalleries.com for a peak. If you are ever in Santa Fe, please come visit. Sarah is a gallery artist in Apparatus Gallery in Tucson. You are a hugh inspiration to her.

I'm currently working on my BA in Studio Art at George Mason Univ.
I constantly search the fiber arts section to see what's new in the area as it may later help me build a portfolio for pattern and surface design which is what I plan to do in the near future.
I truly enjoyed visiting your site as it was a nice break from what I normally see when I visit Textile Art and from my own felting I do on my spare time.
I'll make it a point to go to some of these places and see the work itself.
