"Abstract Column" is a design study of color, transparency and form. The mark making by the stitches adds depth, texture and interest to the piece. The varied textures of the fabric used adds contrast and increases the tactile quality that is unique to fiber art. I admire simplicity in design, a quality that can be found in artists throughout time and cultures, from ancient designs to contemporary modern art.

This piece is presented with a simple, elegant metal frame, without glass, to allow the textile to breathe and to be visually available to the viewer. The framing makes this piece very easy to hang. It will take minimal care. Dust lightly occasionally, and keep it out of direct sunlight. It will maintain its sophisticated elegance for years.
