Galadriel Breezy

Even as a child I was in love with healing and energizing colors and reading about happenings in ancient times that grew into legends and fairy tales. An early childhood and later adulthood in the Pacific Northwest forests, its multitude of greens, mineral colors and rushing waters always influences the art and images I create. I went to college late, and only because I had so many ideas of things to make floating around in my head that wanted out but didn’t know the technical basics of how to make them concrete in the real world. I took all the art classes two different colleges could provide. Then, spending many years travelling, exploring, trying to ‘unlearn’ the strictures ones learns at a school, I practiced the art of creating. I have been a weaver, fiber artist, miscellaneous constructionist for over 45 years now. I am ordinary to meet. Try not to talk a lot. I love my life and the pieces I make resulting from artistic inspiration and obsessions. I work at a job, love my companion and friends and adore my cat.

I can fall in love with a creative project whether it takes me 10 minutes or 2 years to complete. And I have fallen in love with this chair. This chair is meant to give the recliner a feeling of centered, protected, always warm and comfortable space to dream. My favorite works have elements of humor and the intense reality of dreams. The person sitting in this humble throne could rule any world they choose to call reality. It is a chair of potentialities; of ancient tales pulled forth to our own time. It is a chair for a dreamer to sit in and fulfill their dreams-past present or future.
