PFAG Featured Artist Norma Brooks

Fiber Artist

Norma’s love for art and passion for creativity led her to design fine jewelry.

      While working with beads, metals, stones, and glass, she decided to expand her creations by incorporating the use of fabric wrapped clothesline.

        She uses coiling, weaving, crocheting, and sewing techniques, to make baskets, trivets, coasters, rugs, and wall art boasting rich and vibrant colors, unique patterns, and mixed textures.

       It is a challenge to mix, match and pair the conventional with the unusual.  What a surprise to see the results, whether it is intentional or unexpected.
