Featured Artist - Karen Light

Heartfelt is pleased to announce Karen Light as our current featured artist.  Karen is a creative and imaginative soul!

​

In Karen's words... "In October, 2011, I went to Newfoundland. It was there that I saw the most beautiful hooked rugs that were like paintings, telling a story. When I saw the price tag, I realized that if I wanted one of them, I’d have to make it myself.  That was it. There was no stopping me. I took several courses but when I took “The Art of Rug-Hooking” with Deanne Fitzpatrick, that was when I began to accept myself as an ‘artist.’ I have had two shows since I started hooking.  I had to laugh.  As I was hanging my rugs for the second show, a customer approached me and asked “Are you the artist?” I immediately and without hesitation replied “Yes!” I felt thrilled and satisfied.
