Linen, oil paintsticks, armature, fabric paint. Hand painted, stenciled, machine quilted, hand stitched.


Artist’s Statement: I majored in ceramics and spent almost 20 years operating my own business. I am revisiting the classical pottery forms of the past, this time in fiber, using the medium to push the traditional shapes in new directions. The title refers to the traditional Chinese ginger jar shape that inspired this work.
