Governor's Awards
for the Arts in Ohio


 

 

 

It was a great honor to be commissioned
by the Ohio Arts Council to create the
awards for the 2006 Governor's Awards
for the Arts in Ohio.  Six awards were
needed of  a similar size, one somewhat
larger for the Irma Lazarus Award and one
piece was added to the permanent collection
of the Ohio Arts  Council.

I used shibori techniques (stitching and
binding) to pattern the pieces and multiple
applications of procion dyes to create
the color.
