No Boundaries, 15 NW 1st St, Gresham, OR 97030, US

HistoryI have been designing and creating wearable art since I was a teenager. My degree is in clothing design, but wonder if I should have gone on for a fine arts degree....one foot in fashion, one foot in art. In the 70's I had a booth at Portland Saturday Market and began traveling to various art shows. In the 80's I took a break from my craft to open Favourites Bakery with my partner of the time, Ric Seaberg, on the corner of 47th and Fremont. In the 90's I opened a shop on NE Alberta...the first space rental from Guardino Gallery, right next store. I then went on to buy a big old building on the corner of Mallory and Killingsworth, converting it into a gallery, my studio and home. 2001, I bought a property with my current partner and converted part of it into studios, where i work now.SpecialtiesI create wearable art, using a combination of piecework and silkscreen which I sell at juried art shows, festivals and in some shops and galleries. I do custom clothing and design; often a great idea a client brings me--her/his need for something unusual...such as chasuble sets for a local cathedral, graduation stoles for the science school at Portland State University. I offer classes and workshops at my studio or other locations involving cultural fibre art and wardrobe
