Central Valley
11 ½” diameter; $375
One spring, on my way back to Oregon from southern California, I was passing through California’s Central valley and was struck by the amazing layers of colors. The floor of the valley was tan, then a layer of green orchards, then the brown of the foothills, the purple mountains and the blue sky.

Sea and Shore
9 ½” diameter; Sold
The greens in the center of the basket represent the beach grasses. The next layer is the sand with the white edge of a shallow wave. The ocean is a deeper blue then the lighter blue of the sky.

Chaparral Hills
11″ diameter; $375
Large plate in the muted browns and greens of the chaparral countryside with the bright blue sky and beaded yuccas. The Fibonacci sequence was used as the governing pattern for the layers and colors of the hills as well as the placement of the yuccas.

Blue Maize and Yellow corn

These baskets follow the tradition of honoring this sacred plant.

First Storm

The first storm of the Fall blows the autumn leaves off the tree and clears the air.

Lightning, clouds and rain over the mountain. I love the energy of this basket depicting the huge weather over the relatively small mountains.
