The #pnwcommunitycoralreef is at the Coos Art Museum, opening May 9th and running until August 3.

Micro-reef on driftwood is complete. My first freeform crochet with wood. #crochet #crochetcoralreef

The healthy coral pillar is complete! And a sneaky shot with my fiberart aquarium as well.

I am unfortunately addicted to corals. #pnwcommunitycoralreef

The last two panels are complete but not yet sewn down. That needs to wait for another day when my hands have recovered.
The pillar has settled to be slightly shorter than me, about five foot six inches tall. Big enough to be the center piece of our upcoming installation.

The Hyperbolic Coral that Swallowed the World.
It now takes four skeins to make one row. Moving from yellow to red, it's personality is changing...

Today's work on the fiber art coral pillar is complete. Only ten weeks until we install at the Coos Art Museum in Coos Bay, Oregon.

I am really looking forward to the upcoming exhibit at the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center and taking a class aimed at both scientists and artists.

Meanwhile I am trying not to get crushed beneath my coral pillar.

Dismantling and recreating vignettes and wall hangings for our next installation. 🪸

Our next installation will be a unique set up, unlike anything we have done before. Please join us! #pnwcommunitycoralreef
