Wearable art.
Where do you find inspiration?I seem to take in the landscape around me and translate or distill it into a color palette. Then I intuitively warp my loom with these colors and weave the fabric.
What would you do with $25,000?I would go to Italy to study textiles. This experience would add to my knowledge base and increase my skills.
