Guitars, horns, accordions, and fiddles along with crabs, snakes and coffee cups are fashioned into silk patchworks of Louisiana culture. Music and the men and women who play it, along with the Louisiana landscape, provide rich material to draw from in my work. These Silk Compositions are hand-sewn, sometimes imprinted with original text and images, and finished on a 1901 Singer treadle sewing machine.
