My journey as an artist has been a process of
returning to my authentic self. my lifelong love
of fabric is grounded in generations of women
who have been quilting, sewing and stitching
beautiful fabric. my mother, virginia corrick, and
a fellow artist, is a great inspiration to me, with
her insatiable desire, in her 80's, to continually
explore new ways of creating beautiful
garments. there is a deep emotional and
spiritual connection to a larger creative force as
i make cloth, and on some level, this connection
is transmitted to those who respond to my

fabric. this intuitive connection to fabric resulted in a textile design
degree from the university of minnesota, which included studies at
the arts and crafts school (kunst og handverks skole) in oslo,
norway. my artist journey took a side trip to a 25-year career in
interior design, where i channeled my love of textiles, color and
pattern into designs for healthcare, corporate and hospitality
interiors. in 1997, my journey brought me back to textiles. the work
of textile artist jane dunnewold inspired me to create fabrics that
speak to a deep connection with spirit. using a variety of surface
design techniques, imagery is layered in a complex interplay of
color, texture and pattern which creates a feeling of “going within”
and for me, connects me to my heart center. today, my artist path
continues to be about expressing my authentic self through the
creation of beautiful cloth. i love enriching lives by bringing beauty
to environments with my fabrics, and i celebrate connecting with
women’s spirits by inviting them to feel and look great in my
garments.
