New Artwork

I just finished my first work since moving back to Long Island. I am facinated by the line between "women's work" and more "legitimate" forms of art making. My partner is a quilter/knitter and an all around crafty guy. He has turned me on to the history of fiber art and the myriad of forms it takes. I have really been into embroidery and trying to adapt it to how I make things. I have always been partial to redwork a form of embroidery popular for the past couple of hundred years. I think I am going to call the new series "Cum Rags". I know, I'm a classy gurl...
