Hi there! My name is Karen. Designing with natural and repurposed materials is my purpose.
Working dexterously with my hands for nearly four decades, I am a fiber artist located in Michigan’s remote Upper Peninsula. I reside with my husband and pets along Lake Superior’s rugged and pristine shores, not far from the Baraga Plains and Huron Mountains. When I’m not weaving, I’m hiking in the Copper Country, getting my hands dirty in the garden, and exploring other art forms.
“As a mixed-media fiber artist focused on basketry, I am inspired by the abundance of natural material that surrounds me, driven to experiment with barks, roots, and fibers that lend themselves to textile applications.”
