I had been a professional painter for 25 years, when, in December of 1993, I packed my artist's gear, locked the door of my condo overlooking Clearwater's Intercoastal Waterway and moved 4000 miles across the Atlantic to East Grinstead, an old (1086 A.D.) English town in the rolling hills of county Sussex. I rented the three story house at 4 Morton Road, set up a studio on the top floor and learned the techniques and skills of the commercial textile designer -- creating the repeating patterns that decorate the surface of woven materials.
