Images from the Fiber Artists of San Antonio juried exhibition opening

I was thrilled to have two mixed-media pieces juried into the annual exhibition by juror Maggie Weiss, from Chicago.  A special thrill for me was that one of the pieces is a length of art cloth using laminated shredded paper.  The best thing of all was that I had my husband Tim, my oldest daughter and one of my dearest friends from Kansas, Billie, attend the opening!  This was a rare moment, indeed.
The exhibition is hanging until the first week of November at Gallery Nord in San Antonio.  If you are in the vicinity of San Antonio I encourage you to check out this wonderful exhibition.  I'm honored to be a part of it!

I was thrilled that the piece, which is two-sided, was hanging freely in the center of the gallery.

Dimensions of the piece are 24 inches by 80 inches.

The piece is hung from a hollow-core acrylic rod, which allowed monofilament to be fed through it.

Gallery Nord is one of the most beautiful galleries in the city of San Antonio, and a PERFECT venue for fiber art.  The vaulted ceiling adds the perfect note of drama to undulating cloth, garments, and the lush colors and textures of all that is fiber art.
