October 2023 - February 2024 at Hawthorne Library
The natural world around us is amazing and beautiful, providing everything all species and humans need to thrive. There are so many threats to our beautiful planet, Earth. Still, I have hope. In my work I wish to acknowledge the natural worldβhold it close, keep my eyes and attention upon itβcelebrate it. Iβve chosen to work with materials that feel comfortable in my handβpaper, pencils, fabric and thread.
My thanks to the Madison Public Library for having many books available that inform and inspire my work, and for the opportunity to share my art with the Hawthorne Library community. Thank you to Hannah OβHare Bennett for expanding my embroidery stitch repertoire and introducing me to earth pigments. βArtist Statement
