DeEtta Beebe’s passion is textile arts and rug hooking. An accomplished and respected rug hooker, she has taken her art to a unique direction by deftly blending primitive folk art with contemporary flair.
The simplicity of her subjects contrasts beautifully against the complexity of the medium, in a style that is all her own.
She hand-dyes all her own wool and enjoys the creativity and art that fills her shelves in her studio, open to the public for classes and purchasing supplies.
You will find enthusiasm in creating with her. During your time with her, she will help you enter your own world of creativity and self-expression in your own art.
This class is open to adults!
