#BlueSkyArtShow The sea anemone is carnivorous. Their tentacles are venomous and cause their prey to become paralyzed. They expel shells and #pieces they cannot digest. At negative tide you can see all their magnificent colors.

#marchintolandscapes #fiberart #handembroidery This is the most #colorful wildflower garden landscape piece I’ve made. Vintage rusty wheelbarrow with a hand stitched garden inside. I love color and whimsy. They are happy, we need more happy…

#marchintolandscapes The beautiful old trees at Eden’s State Park form a #tunnel like walkway through the park. Many of the trees are hundreds of years old and covered in gorgeous mosses and fungi.

#marchintolandscapes It is always a little #misty at Victoria Falls.

#marchintolandscapes Chimney Rock Trail. Ghost Ranch. Georgia O’Keefe had a studio here. It is #vast and the landscape is stunning and inspirational.

#makersmARTch #stab #fiberart #feltedwool Stabbing wool with a needle can be very therapeutic, so can the seashore. Felted wool with lots of seed beads.

#makersmARTch #pattern #quiltsky #fiberart One big kaleidoscope of pattern and color! One block wonder quilt.

#marchintolandscapes #untouched Alaska is so vast and unspoiled. It is amazing to see places that have not been ruined by “progress”. They are the very best places.

#marchintolandscapes #frozen Alaska #glacier. The glaciers are melting at record speed due to climate change and planetary warming. Life will change when they are gone.

#makersmARTch #glass Vintage glass made into a modern mermaid. Glued onto wood, then epoxied. She’s a sharp gal!

#marchintolandscapes #Bigisland The land is #arid atop #Maunakea. Shown are volcanic cones and a sunset over the clouds. It is a grand place and when measured from the ocean floor to its peak it is over 33,000 feet which would make it the tallest mountain in the world.

#marchintolandscapes Random garden at a coffee shop in Pacific Grove, CA. The flowering landscapes are supersized and so #vibrant.

#makersmARTch #carved Some of my favorite things are hand carvings by Tony Costanza. He carves the best Santa’s, angels, witches and everything else. Folk art at its very best!

#marchintolandscapes #aquatic The Victoria Falls bridge over the Zambezi river. The bridge borders Zambia and Zimbabwe.

#marchintolandscapes Denali National Park is #sprawling at over 6 million acres of natural beauty. It is breathtaking in every direction.

#makersmARTch Layered #Watercolor with #handembroidery on cotton fabric has #soft, dreamy quality.

#makersmARTch A neighbor left this antique #wood sewing cabinet outside my door. It was in rough shape but it showed promise. I got a sander and some stripper and voila! It is fun to give “old stuff” a new life. I use it everyday.

#marchintolandscapes #africa The Okavango Delta is a #sprawling inland river located in Botswana. It is a truly magical place where some of the worlds most endangered animals can be seen.

#marchintolandscapes #tranquil I always feel tranquility and peace in Hawaii. #Bigisland

#makersmARTch #bead #handembroidery #coralreef I love beads! They are so versatile, with endless ways to be creative. The large “sea urchins” are wooden beads covered with fiber. Bubbles and sea coral are tiny seed beads.
