I am lucky enough to have my hand dyed silk scarves for sale in several gallery shops around the province and also at Talisman Books on Pender Island. Look for them at Craft Connection in Nelson, The Old School House in Qualicum Beach, Two Rivers Gallery in Prince George, Comox Valley Art Gallery in Courtenay,and Campbell River Art Gallery. I also sell my scarves on my Etsy store Three Fates Studio.
I dye my scarves in small batches and in this way I capture the mood of the day, the season, the light. No two scarves are ever the same. I fold each scarf,secure the folds and then apply the colour. I wait for the magic to happen. I love unwrapping the little packages to see what lies inside. The colour and pattern combinations are sometimes truly remarkable.I use the landscape around me for inspiration; the forests and beaches. And I try to capture the patterns of light on different bodies of water at different times of day and at different times of the year.
