Boisali Biswas and Her Perpetual Garden

Boisali Biswas, originally from Calcutta, India, and now living in West Bloomfield, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit, shared with me pictures of her recently painted fences surrounding her house's backyard.  She calls these paintings, "Perpetual Garden," and you can see why.  Boisali is one of the most creative individuals I've ever met.  I had the pleasure of taking a workshop with her on screen printing using crayon resists through the Michigan Surface Design group.  Also, she recently spoke to the Lakeshore Fiber Arts Guild, a group I've belonged to since its inception in 1979.  Check out our guild's blog and her work at http://lakeshorefiberartsguild.blogspot.com where you will find the link to her webpage and many images of her work.  As she said, "It will be interesting to see what it looks like in a lot of snow this cold winter."
