Metal Crochet by Marita Valdizan

Opening reception for the metal crochet show "Expressions" by Marita Valdizan.

My family named me "The Spider-Mom". People are surprised that I always carry a spool of wire and a crochet hook in a small bag for when I feel inspired. I am a mother and an artist so this technique allows me to create my art wherever I am inspired to do so!“

The maximum moment of my creation occurs in the passivity of the night, often beginning when my little ones are asleep. It is in the quiet of the night that I can feel a powerful energy emerging in the creation of my work.”“I am glad to be able to share my grand passion with you through thisexhibit. This is the result of three years of inspiration, creative work, ups and downs and even some awards along the way.” The exhibit consists of Mixed Media, Wearable Art and Jewelry.
