Maria Bullock
I spent much of my youth in a small Polish country village where I gained an early appreciation for the craft of basket-making. I am now on Orcas Island off the coast of Washington State, living on the edge of a wetland marsh on my family’s permaculture farm. On my homestead, I grow, harvest, and dry a variety of basketry materials. Each of these materials serves as an inspiration. I weave using traditional European techniques to create unique pieces that are both functional and beautiful.
