Commissions
 Wendy
Carpenter's work is often commissioned directly
by the client, offering a unique personal
opportunity to collectively design custom
artwork.
The process
starts with the client selecting the
character or style of fiber art that
he/she is attracted to. The process
continues with describing the wall
dimensions
and choosing
a color scheme to work
with.
 Wendy
guides
the client through a process of hanging paper on
the wall to determine the approximate size and
shape desired. With the client's input she
designs an aesthetically pleasing, high
impact, fiber art form to
enhance the interior of the home. 
Wendy
then provides a drawing for the client to
preview. The drawing includes the design
to scale with the wall dimensions, color layout,
estimated price and date for completion. Detailed
designing takes place in the actual hands-on
weaving process. Wendy has designed fiber wall
sculptures and hangings for 27 years.

ARTIST STATEMENT:
The
latest series of woven and sculptural paper works
represent a culmination of my involvement with
etchings and painting. Having been fascinated with
working in dimensional possibilities for many years (eg:
relief etchings and multiple canvases), I am now
stretching the properties of paper to create optical
and structural images incorporating paintings &
collage of landscapes, botanicals, the figurative and
the mythic. Having traveled throughout Europe, Kenya,
Egypt, Greece, the American Southwest and now living
in Florida, all these experiences and locations have
been a powerful influence on creative imagery and in
my life.

IsAbel Beaudoin
|
Door County Master Artist
|
 IsAbel
began drawing animals on the family’s farm in
Stephenson, Michigan at age five and continues to this
day, more than 70 years later. While her parents had
prescribed a career in history, the rebellious IsAbel
transferred into the fine arts program at the University
of Wisconsin (Milwaukee) to obtain a B.S. in Art. She
was discouraged from a full-time arts career by her
family who, in the early 1940’s, thought a more
acceptable position for a woman was to teach art to
support her private aspirations. For more on
