sheila hicks

looking at
the fiber art
jackets at suno again
i realized i'd never
done a post on sheila hicks

she is one of my greatest influences
and inspired my initial weaving desires
there was a physical shift in my mind
the first time i saw her work
in a library book as a wee one...
i had been obsessed with learning
fiber arts from my great grandmother
but this...this was an entirely
different dimension.
