Description:
Artist Statement: "I like to find inspiration and beauty in the simple things in nature. I was intrigued by the shadow-play of an uprooted juniper tree. As I played with lines and fabrics, this piece took on a life of its own. The deeper I got into this piece, the more stories and symbolism began to appear. It represents the struggle of life and growth manipulating around the blockades as it strives to exist."
Techniques: Machine Appliqué and Quilting; Fusing; Hand Dyeing
