My art is watercolors, and I've done much with cranes too. Was featured artist a few years ago at the International Crane Foundation in Baraboo, Wisconsin. I think they are not doing art exhibits per se, any more, as they did for so many years. You are a master of color, and I admire your talent. A Colorado quilter friend recommended your site/work. See my work at www.pagesbyperetti.com I live in Chicago suburbs. Exquisite work. My art is watercolors, and I’ve done much with cranes too.

I'm a raven art collector and I have never seen any fabric art remotely like this in detail. I was at Artique on the first but couldn't get close enough to the pieces to see how it is achieved tecnically. These are amazing both in execution and in the way you are able to portray raven postures and behavior. Beth Surdut is the only other artist to do this as well. I will let her know about your work. You need a comprehensive gallery. Part of your success seems to be in that your fabric work is so painterly. That might be because the subjects take command of the field. They are large and each have a character and personality. They are features of our dreams...representing the human range of emotion as well as raven's. Like all who are called to communicate with raven, your life has changed. I can't say enough good things about what this change has done for your art and wish yoou every success.
