Totem Tapestries This suite of fiber pieces was made by printing etchings (intaglio), silkscreen, and woodcuts on silk, satin, and cotton fabrics, piecing them together, and adding embroidery and appliqué. Collectively I call them Totem Tapestries. Following the fabric pieces are several etchings on paper. Most of the series was completed in 2004, but a final addition was made in 2009.
