Winston-Salem, NC, United States
I love to re-purpose old items,by combing old and new to create a unique item.
color,texture,fabric,sewing , mosaic,scrap-booking, quilting,
I do a lot of different creative adventures. Some turn out better than expected,some need more creativity added... lol. The main thing is to have fun and enjoy what you do.
My background: My whole family on both sides are artist, my mother & grandmother both have taught art (painting) at colleges in North and South Carolina.I personally am not a painter, but their work has inspired many creations of mine. I first learned to sew in Florida when one of my dear friends and neighbors Joann Donato agreed to teach me to quilt. I was hooked! I loved being able to create with so many different textures and colors. From there, I decided I would like to learn to make my own designs in clothing so I enrolled the Art Institute of Colorado for Fashion Design. What a wonderful ,fun experience!! I opened my Ebay store in 2004 and am still on Ebay.( My link is listed below) I currently sale all kinds of things new and used On Ebay,but wanted to have a different place to display my Artistic Creations. So I joined ArtFire. I hope to fill this studio with lots of beautiful items. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do creating them.
