Orna Willis, Philadelphia, PA, USmember
I studied art, majoring in painting, as well as ceramics, interior design and photography. My art education is an ongoing process which gives me much pleasure.
Color is my greatest fascination. Design and architecture have always intrigued me and my use of geometric shapes is what I bring from that love. My work is meant to bring pleasure, first to the senses, then to the mind. When the senses are stimulated, the mind will work all the better.
craft interests: jewelry making, paper crafts, needlepoint (not your grandmother's)

I will be giving a seminar on this piece in the future and would be happy to let you know when and where.

Hello Jeffrey,
posted: 9:37 am on December 8thYour work and ideas are spectacular. I truly can't get enough. Therefore I have a request; please please please give us a Hanukkah (or any other Jewish themed) craft project.
Nothing I've seen or done myself quite compares to your talent.
Thanks
Orna
