rwbriggs@q.com
BFA from New Mexico State University in Painting
Graduate work: Printmaking, University of Wyoming, Ceramics, University of Denver.
Worked as a Ceramic Artist for 38 years.
Currently working as a Fiber Artist. Live in Coal Creek Canyon at 8,000’ between Boulder and Golden, Colorado. Married to Steve Briggs, Ceramic Artist.
Artist Statement: Cloth excites me. After working with a limited palette in Ceramics, color has opened up a new chapter in my life. Quilts have a two dimensional form with three layers. Adding color, shape, texture and contrast makes a layered statement. I spend a lot of time outside studying nature, trying to come up with new ways of expression.
