Artist Statement

Women's desires are well known to me - I have been a woman for a very long time.
'Wise Women Teach' is a reflection of women's role in early education of nearly all children. It asks the question, 'Why would any culture want to withhold education from girls?'
'Adornments' illustrates the human trait to adorn ourselves with items we make. No other species does that in the same way.
'One Size Fits: Gram Might Approve' uses my grandmothers doilies. Her crochet work was excellent into old age. Fine threads were her challenge, until she could not see them clearly enough to do her precise work.
