BRiZEL HANDCRAFTS: September 2013

A few nights ago...
Crescent was in an intense

orange raspberry color...
She called me out
to gaze upon her sliver fair

Brizel Handcrafts: Twilight, Northern California, United States; I am a craftswoman & artist; a mother to the animals that look to me, to the trees & gardens that I’ve planted, and to the land that I am pioneering.

I was born in France and grew up outside of Geneva, in the vastness of London and in the hills of Provence & the Mediterranean area.

I was trained as an artist through mentoring & college, when in 1985 I received a BA in Fine Arts- both in studio art and art history. I was a paper maker, photographer, printer & weaver. Professionally, I represented photographers & artists in the commercial gallery system, notably Vision Gallery in San Francisco.

Today, I advocate for my own creative work… in a journey called Brizel Handcrafts. I continue to be very eclectic and work with a variety of naturally eco-friendly materials and supplies.

I craft throughout the wheel of the year- making certain products at specific times of the solar year or of the lunar cycle. Since I have chosen to live very close to the land... up in the mountains where the skies are wide & open... all Her rhythms, deep consciousness and passion reverberate in what I create.
