I am pleased to be one of the featured artists in "Designed for Adornment: Silk and Sterling" at the Kentucky Artisan Center located on I-75 in Berea, Kentucky (south of Lexington). The exhibit runs from September 27, 2008 to January 29, 2009. The opening reception is from 1:00 to 3:00pm, Saturday, November 8, 2008. Artists will be giving a short talk about their work at 1:30pm. I will also be demonstating shibori on silk at the Kentucky Artisan Center on Saturday November 15 from 10:30am to 3:30pm. The outfit picture above is hand dyed raw silk noil Nomad Jacket (pattern design by Lois Ericson). The jacet was dyed using the Low Water Imersion Dyeing technique. Hand dyed silk fusion was applied to the front and back flaps to create the design. The drandonfly buttons are vintage Czech glass.
