My earliest memories are of wanting to make things. As a child growing up in Kansas, I was surrounded with women who quilted, sewed, knitted, and cooked. They were very accomplished people who could take care of them selves in any situation. I was a handweaver for many years. The jump to digital art was a natural one as looms were the first computers.
Lately, I’ve become more and more involved with recording my hometown. It’s shrinking yearly due to economic problems, but I have great affection for my childhood friends. I’m still Pat Lafferty when I go home or “Lafferty” to my closest friends. We forged relationships as children which sustain me to this day.
