Functional Felted Art

Patricia wet-felts functional wool art from fleece produced by her daughters flock of Shetland sheep, incorporating other exotic fibers like silks, alpaca, mohair, and angora. She is a wildlife biologist in her professional life thus bringing elements from the natural world into her art such as a blue-footed booby tea cozy, psychedelic matriarchal elephant journal, and cross-shoulder bag with squid and its underwater world.
