Penobscot — "From a very early age I was attracted to textiles. When I was five years old, my mother taught me how to knit and I have been knitting every since. In college I discovered I could actually study textiles and, so, learned how to weave."

My primary interest in textiles is in the design and production of functional fabrics; and my continuing fascination is rooted in the fundamental aspects of and the exploration of the structure of fabric, the interaction of fibers, and how colors, textures and patterns are created.
