Rug and drawing


Above is a traditionally hooked rag rug that I made a few years ago. It took me two years to complete and it is 10' x 5' made entirely of recycled wool garments, scraps from friend's sewing projects and my own clothes. It now lives in Madagasgar inside the American Embassy.

Below, is a medium sized drawing that I did in 2008 of a baboon, a Secretary Bird and a double headed snake. "Double Trouble"

Camel

This is a drawing with graphite on paper. Title: "Outpost" 2008

Big Buffalo in the West Oakland studio.

This is a drawing done with acrylic paint on raw linen. It is about 9' x 5'. I have been working on it on and off for a couple of months now.

2011 UPDATE! I'm BACK!!!

Hi everyone,
Yes, it has been a long time since I updated my blog. 2008 was the last entry. Sad, I know... But, I have decided to attempt blogging again. Maybe it will catch on and hold this time. I will post interesting things that I'm up to or have seen on this blog. I promise! Thanks for looking. -Tara
