  1. Thanks Michelle. A little light relief may be well overdue for me. Frivolity and head in the sand images... something to go with the de'cor. No more of this planet in peril undercurrent. like the piece above.
    Until I was looking for a title for this weaving I did not know that the original meaning of the word skivvy, was a derogatory term for a house-maid. I love these little discoveries.

WELCOME TO MY BLOG....



I hope you find Warped Art & Design both interesting and inspiring, and that it will encourage anyone working with fibre to investigate and experiment further within their chosen field.



The basic loom, which is my tool of trade, has remained technologically unchanged. This aspect appeals to me as I weave contemporary images on a machine of such simple and ancient construction.
