Traditions Week 1 classes start tomorrow morning and run through Friday.  I will be teaching how to weave a key/wall basket this week. Tuesday evening I will be part of the Gallery Artist Talks beginning at 6:30.

Studio 1330

I am joining three other CCPS secondary art teachers in an exhibit at the new Studio 1330.


You can learn more about Christine Wenderoth's paintings and the studio at the website  www.studio-1330.com


I have three vessels in the show, an Alaskan cedar bark vessel, a copper and watercolor paper plaited vessel and a low pine needle and copper bowl.


Be sure to check it out and let me know what you think!

Small Square Rib Basket

The square rib basket is a six inch square.  The color pattern combines violet dyed cane on the handle and the initial rib insertion weaving, black reed for the handle and God's eye, with cream flat reed filling in the remainder of the basket.

Art in the Park

I will have a booth featuring my baskets at the festival.  

Come by and say "Hi".

Footed Yarn Basket

This rectangular basket is perfect to hold your yarn and fiber projects.   The stained oak wooden legs raise the basket three inches off the ground. An inner rim row is added after six inches of woven flat reed to allow for the hand openings on two opposite sides.  Two more inches of 1/4" reed raise the sides to eight inches.  The basket is topped with an oak stained rim row.    The overall size of the basket is 13" x 16".
