Creating Beautiful Things from Fiber
Our Artists
Barbara Ann Downs van Calsem
Barbara Ann hails from New Orleans, where she ran a very successful perfumery business in the French Quarter. Since retiring to the Taos area, she has developed a passion for weaving: her rugs and wall-hangings grace the homes of collectors across the country.
Kim van Deman
Kim's original designs created with regionally sourced fibers include hats, bags, scarves, wall hangings, Spirit Bears and dog "sweaters"
Involved in fiber arts most of her life, Taos Wool Festival sparked Kim's passion for felting.
Creative use of color, design and textures make each piece one of a kind.
Techniques include wet felting, needle felting and nuno felting.
Madeline Stark
Madeline learned to knit at 10 years of age. Over the years she has expanded her skills to crocheting, spinning, and dyeing wool.
Madeline has participated in fiber shows throughout New Mexico for over 22 years. "I felt a calling to share my passion for the fiber arts by teaching classes in knitting and crocheting to adults and children".
Lise Poulsen
Lise has been dabbling in fibre ever since - as a teenager - her mother taught her to knit. Since the 1990s she has honed her skills with fine handmade paper, and felt art and accessories. She continues to explore and learn about the immense options for the medium that drive her felt art.
Marlene Gray
Marlene has lived in the Peñasco area for many years, with a passion for the outdoors. As well as weaving she loves to design and knit very cute baby clothes
