Invitation from Plano ASG and Dallas Area Fiber Artist member Lu Peters
Hi All,
I thought that the ASG membership would be interested in attending the February program presented by Lisa Covert, who attended the Decadence show with me.
Lisa is an accomplished Shibori dye artist, felt maker, and bookbinder ( among other things!). She teaches and sells at the Craft Guild of Dallas, where she was recently Guild president. Her lecture will be about the challenges and rewards in making Fluid Currents, a large, multi-piece, fiber installation (pictured above) for the December Plano Art Association Contexture: Fiber and Fabric exhibition.
The program is February 22nd at C.C. Young Retirement Community at 6:45PM. Please visit the DAFA website for further details.

Her accomplishments include a line of patterns, countless magazine and book contributions, television appearances, national ads, several embellishment books and videos, and numerous museum and gallery exhibitions. Her work is featured in the art collections of corporations, and in the homes of celebrities.
