ABOUT ME
I am passionate about creative expression and after decades of searching I have found my passion in tapestry weaving.
It was in January 2010 while living in Greece, when I met my teacher, Joanna Knoop - an amazing multi-cultural weaver.
Within the first hour of my first weaving lesson, I was hooked and amazingly surprised how easy it came to me, as if I had just remembered my long-lost creative art.
Weaving is one of many creative expressions and I use it as a meditation as well as a metaphor for my personal journey. That's why I have decided to teach tapestry weaving so others can discover their own creative expression.
Warp speed to all of you,

Here I use an old window frame. The great thing about using frames is that I can take them outside or wherever I go.
I use all different sizes. The biggest is like a door frame and the smallest (30x30cm) I use for making greeting cards.
The material I use for this piece is Greek goat wool and cotton.
Finished size: 43x72cm
