“Every piece of art that I create gives me the opportunity to learn more about the diversity, complexity and addictiveness of using fabric, pigments and stitches to create a statement.

Oftentimes, when people see my art pieces, they are amazed that they are not paintings. From my perspective, they are.

However, instead of just pigments of all kinds, I utilize a multitude of different fabrics and the dimensionality of quilting to add to and enhance my art. My art stimulates a desire for a closer look and a tactile confirmation that the art includes stitching.

I am on a continuous journey to explore the possibilities of using fiber art to focus attention on the concept or idea I have chosen to represent.

I love to teach and mentor others in the enrichment of their own unique creative voice, helping them to realize that each of us has something important to express and share.” 

Rhonda lives with her husband, Ray Fallen, on R&R Acres in Emporia, KS, with their rescued horses (4), goats (2), dogs (2) and cats (5). They moved here from Colorado in 2019. Rhonda’s studio is in their walk-out basement where she creates and teaches.
