This rug celebrates and is an expression of my deep reverence for the land we call California. My connection to the land began as a five-year-old sitting in the back of my father’s car riding along highways and watching the golden hills go by. I wanted to go up into the hills and run my hands over the golden grasses. Over the next forty-five years, I developed the skills to express this dream through the fiber art medium of rug making in the oriental tradition.
