I use a variety of shibori techniques to create one-of-a-kind hand dyed silk scarves. These are available at ThreeFatesStudio, my Etsy store, as well as Talisman Books and Gallery on Pender Island, Craft Connection in Nelson, Two Rivers Gallery Shop in Prince George, The Gallery Shop at the Campbell River Art Gallery, the Gallery Shop at The Old School House Arts Centre in Qualicum Beach, Tom and Jerry's on Beacon Avenue in Sidney, and at ArtCraft and WinterCraft on Salt Spring Island.
My colour palette is inspired by the gorgeous sunrises and sunsets - in the sky and reflected on the water surrounding Pender Island. By the wild flowers, lichen, trees, birds, fields, forests and beaches which bring me delight as I walk with my dog and friends around this beautiful island I call home.
