Phyllis Shoemaker
As a young woman I was an avid embroidery artists, doing hangings as well as tablecloths, carves, etc. I embroidered pictures on squares I used in quilts also. I sewed my families clothing-including suits for my sons. I enjoy teaching youth and see an excitement in them with their accomplishments which is often lacking in our electronic society. I see many types of art as being a step for our communities to teach our young people the joy and self-worth from creating something on their own, whether it be a card, clay pot, oil painting, glass work or a piece of beaded jewelry. It is UNIQUELY their creation.
Phyllis’s cards are individually hand cut and created from recycled materials. All sales go to research and aid to Huntington’s Disease patients and their families. This is in memory and honor of Phyllis’s husband and son who died from HD.
