Artist Statement
Many years ago, I bought a Pine Needle Basketry book and taught myself the basic techniques of coiled basketry. Since that time, I have grown to love this historic art form handed down through the ages from native Florida Indians to early pioneers. I have been teaching pine needle basketry to both children and adults ever since. A distinguishing feature of most pine needle creations is the delicate and varied stitching that holds the coils together. My pine needle baskets showcase these traditional methods interpreted with a contemporary flair.
