I've always been involved in art primarily with painting but often got frustrated with coming up with concepts and original pieces. I taught myself how to weave one year and never looked back. I make modern weavings through various techniques like knitting looping and the common over and under movement. I use bulky yarn preferably wool in lots of hues, ribbons, and beads to bring to life an abstract concept. The materials I use speak for themselves often and working with my hands in this way feels magical. The works feels like it comes to life on its own which I love.
