"Arachne" Fiber Art Artists Flag Book: Handmade paper and watercolor By Gail M. Trice The inspiration for this book is the story from Greek mythology wherein a young woman named Arachne, having mastered the art of tapestry, challenges the goddess Athena to a weaving contest. Athena, fearing defeat by a mere mortal but not wanting to destroy such an accomplished artist, transforms Arachne into a spider. Thus, making it possible for Arachne to continue creating her amazing tapestries.
This book is dedicated to another masterful weaver and fiber artist, Pamela Husky. Dawg attack! The damage is done. Studio Dawg doesn't scare wooden man, but he lets the sleeping dog lie.
