I am an artist living in Far Northern California. I make sculptures from found objects and single use items.
Lately I have been making fiber art birds and large ravens using my collection of fabrics and baubles. I am inspired to make them after watching an unkindness (a flock) that hangs out on my route into town. Then an unkindness of more than 35 moved in across the street from me. In December of 2022 I figured out the pattern and made several life size ravens that went into a gallery show. I have gone on to make different sized birds using a variety of fabrics. I adorn the birds with objects from my extensive collection of buttons and found objects. Like the ravens I am a collector of trinkets and gewgaw (a showy thing, especially one that is useless or worthless).
