I am not sure how it happened, but weaving is also, in part, my life.
When I design a weaving, I'm thinking about the weaving process from the beginning to the end. And so I'm not just doing a painting and then referencing it into a textile, I'm designing a textile.
I think one of the tricks to being a weaver is staying involved. Just being able to be present with each step as it is. --Bhakti Ziek
