Tabard Detail 2

I painted 3 inch wide front bands for the tabard and also appliqued them on.Then the under arm and front ties were out of black rattail cord with hand made glazed ceramic beads hanging on the ends. It was lined with a black & white stripe fabric.

About My Art

My "Wild Women", "Birds of a Feather" and “Nativity” sculptures are hand sculpted and one of a kind. They are created with terra cotta clay and fired several times to 2000 degrees.

Then the fun really begins when I start creating a personality by adorning a sculpture with textiles that are ethnic or hand-dyed and hand painted. When that is completed I embellish them with more yarns, beads, wire, ribbons and feathers to complete the look.

My ceramic beads that I use in my necklaces are also handmade and fired to achieve the bright and fashionable colors. I also make beads out of fiber (accenting with wire and glass beads) to add interest and exciting colors to them.
