Wearable Art Gallery
I find Wearable
Art an exciting three dimensional opportunity which serves to grace the
human form, lift the fragile spirit, and illustrate the expressive self.
The following collection contains examples of many techniques that I offer
through workshops.
This gallery is for inspiration only ... not for
sale. For saleable items visit our Felt
