I have always loved the feel of fine leather and am intrigued by it as a sculptural medium. For me, creating mythic creatures from materials that have had a previous life is ultimately appropriate. I honor the stories embedded in the materials, be they leather, stone, old textiles, or beads, and honor the sources. May they encourage your sense of adventure and the creation and sharing of story.

May your summer be filled with opportunities to stir creativity and reflection. Need a special place for holding sketches and/or writing - how about creating your own sculptural leather journal cover at the Snow Farm Craft Program this October with me!
