Soho Interiors is privileged to feature hand crafted pine needle baskets by Anne Wells. Wells’ inspiration came after moving to a home in California, where a tree shed needles all over her deck; she purchased a book and taught herself the art of basket weaving. Anne transposed the book’s instructions from right handed to left handed and has continued to increase the complexity of designs over the years. Canary Island and Montezuma pine needles are her choice material as they are very flexible and measure from 9-15 inches long. Come admire a variety of baskets–some coiled with raffia, some with waxed thread, two with gourd bases. Private collection – not for sale.

Other exhibits include abstract oil by Ron Flier entitled “The Two Schools”, mixed media by Traci Osborn, Concrete and Copper Vases by Eric Dreyer, Photography by Sarah Hamlin, Oil by Mack Schroer, and watercolor and mixed media by Bobbie Rieger.
