The Art of Jim Hodges

Jim Hodges is an artist working in a variety of media. When I saw an exhibit of his work at the Contemporary Art Museum in St. Louis I was particulary captivated by his huge curtains comprised of silk flower petals hand stitched together. When a favorite client asked for something special for Easter, I thought of Hodges’ flower curtains, and created a banner with two panels of silk and cotton overlaid with a third panel of silk flowers. I think the result is one of the most beautiful things I have created.
