SCARVES
- Scarves are made entirely of merino wool or a wool and silk combination. Some include yarn, ribbon and sparkle. Each is one-of-a-kind made with soapy water, heat, friction and lots of love.
VESSELS, PILLOWS AND WALL HANGINGS
- Vessels can be filled with silk or dried arrangements, fresh flowers in a glass container or just left as sculptural forms.
- Pillows can enhance any bed or couch.
- Wall Hangings are wall decorations that can beautify any surface where color and texture is desired.
Wool Portraits
- Photos are taken. A pose is decided. Next, wisps of flesh, eye and hair colored wool are needle felted into a felt base. Features take shape as highlights and shadows are added. Clothing and background complete the picture. Mimi calls it painting with wool.
PhotoMontage and Silk screen Prints
- Photomontage is a combination of several images joined together for artistic effect or to show more of the subject than can be disclosed in a single photograph.
- Silk screen printing is done in color stages printed with special inks squeezed through a fine silk screen.
Paintings
- Paintings are done mostly with acrylic paints. Subject matter ranges from earth to sky and everything in-between, including portraits. The technique varies from tight precision to broad brush strokes.
Ceramics
- Mimi devoted twenty years to her first love, ceramics. She created bowls, vases, casseroles, clocks, mirrors, tea sets and samovars. She thought it fantastic to shape a lump of clay into something useful and decorative.
