Made by Hand by Jeanne Braham
It is an honor to be one of the ten artists featured in Jeanne Braham’s new book Made by Hand: Art and Craft in the Heartland of New England. The chapter about me includes information about the inspiration for my pieces as well as detailed descriptions of the silk painting process. The photos by Mary Schjeldahl are beautiful and informative. You can order the book from the publisher at www.commonwealtheditions.com, from your local bookstore or from Amazon.com.
