For IF: The routine becomes the pattern of life.This is one of only a few non-figurative paintings that I have done. It had figures to begin with, but I painted them out. You can tell where they were because I left the weaving dark where the figures had been. This painting was in response to the many stories and tales I have read that contain a weaver character who is responsible for the creation of the paths of life, in particular, stories by Orson Scott Card.

I love your work it definitely has the mythical.
Wonderful concept coming from one who majored in weaving on this side.
Best regards again!
I love how you illustrate ideas and concepts. Your work is very thought provoking. This peice reminds me of a dream I had many years ago. I would like to be so free in my work to paint many of the dreams images that have stuck with me over the years, but I have yet to do what I most want to do.
so what made you take the figures out?
In response to Mary's comment, I took out the figures because they made the story too specific; sometimes too much content stops a piece from working and it is better for the viewer to provide the story and the context. Thanks for asking, Mary!
