Janice Rosema  |  Artist Statement

Since childhood, I have always been involved with textiles and fibers. Over the years, I have been an ICU/CCU nurse, medical transcriptionist, stained glass artist as well as designing and teaching in the fiber arts field. I have taught quilting, spinning, weaving, dyeing, embroidery, needlepoint, knitting and crochet including freeform and other techniques. Additionally, I had a millinery business and my designs for women and girls were sold worldwide to department stores and high end boutiques. My greatest love is working with fibers and creating works of wearable art .
