Never the Same River utilizes a number of tapestry patterns to create an abstract flow of a river. Some patterns resemble rocks and sand, others provide the fluidity of the water., H. Wilson; ashland or; never the same river; 1981; sewn tapestry; 1981, Helen Wilson received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Oregon. Thereafter she studied fine arts and crafts at numerous institutions in California before landing in Boulder, Colo., to teach craft and art seminars to college and high school students. In 1973, a fire destroyed Wilson’s home and studio, prompting her to return to the Northwest and Ashland. The oldest of four children, Wilson was born in Salina, Kan., grew up on a farm in Chehalis, Wash., and in her resumé expresses the importance of the woods of Washington state in her view of life. Many of her tapestries had a natural theme that may relate back to this era. “Lush complexity marked those landscapes, and this is how I visualize and express nature today,” Wilson wrote in a recent resume.

J. Poxson Fawkes' May Precipatation with West Wind utilized bold colors, lots of red, yellow and blue, and geometrical weaves to provide the feel of spring and light wind. It is a joyful and vibrant piece., J. Poxson Fawkes; 40x54 in; linen double weave; with pattern; may 1983; sosc schneider museum; may precipitation with west wind, Judith Poxson Fawkes, a resident of Portland, Oregon, is a graduate of Cranbrook Academy of Art. She taught weaving at four institutions of higher education, most recently at Lewis and Clark College, Portland. Her fifty-six commissions hang in such diverse locations as a Federal courthouse, hospitals, university and school buildings, corporations and businesses, a Royal Caribbean Cruise ship, residences in Saudi Arabia and Paris, and in a jail lobby. Sixty-three tapestries are in public collections. She is a recipient of a WESTAF/NEA Regional Fellowship for Visual Artists, an Individual Artists' Fellowship from the Oregon Art Commission and a Crafts Fellowship from the National Endowment of the Arts. She has written a book entitled "Weaving a Chronicle," described as a visual and written catalog by a working tapestry weaver. Forty-six tapestries, pictured in color, are accompanied by adjacent text describing the reasons for each work's creation. Stories of the tapestries revisit commissions and exhibitions. Each tapestry represents seminal ideas in one of six series. The tapestries contribute to the chronicle of how ideas are conceived and executed-- adding to the history of American art and craft, and to the definition of contemporary tapestry.
