About Me:
I am a watercolor artist who translates her skills into unique silk scarves hand painted with fiber-reactive dyes.
I always use brushes, but sometimes I mask the dye with anything I happen to have around. I never use wax or stuff that will sink into or interfere with the silk fibers.
I battle boredom by experimenting: One way or another, one technique or another, I have a long-term love affair with silk and fabric design.
The photos are of scarves that have gone to new owners. To see current work, go to my ETSY site.

My "consciousness raising" began in 1968, along with

New! Silk neckties for men


This is fun-- I have wanted to fool around with men's ties for awhile, and am finally doing it. What's interesting is designing for a different shape and size and finding "manly" designs; what's challenging is dealing with rinsing and washing. They are definitely "dry clea

Painting with Dye on Silk Clothing etc

I have added clothing to my Etsy site-- wonderful silk stuff and some other fibers that are fun to play with and to wear. Most of them don't fit me, however. Take a peek in this shop section:

I even have a tie-dyed silk & cashmere sweater on there.

More Chippie the Bear

For Chippie's fans, I have added a new video. My husband left the door open by mistake, and Chippie took a powder. Of course, we got him back pretty quickly, but he was traumatized. He knows how dangerous it is out there for little guys who don't know the ropes, and was so happy to get back to his little territory. Pretty soon, he will stop giving me his chipmunk love and will go into semi-hibernatory mode, which means he has his nut stash and refuses to socialize. He has done this every wint

Please check out this blog-- I wrote it as "guest blogger" all about how Chippie came to my rescue and vice verse.
