STATEMENT:

By combining her fine arts and textile backgrounds, Joyce Barker-Schwartz designs and produces the most innovative and exciting alternatives in floor and wall treatments for the home or office. Each woven canvas rug and wall hanging is a work of art that is carefully constructed with hand painted canvas strips. Also, depending on the design, appliqued shapes and hand stitching are then added. The canvas rugs are then sealed with an acrylic finish, which makes for both a durable and unique look. Her wall hangings add color and texture to any setting. She works closely with her clients to create a custom hand woven canvas rug or wall hanging to fit their special needs. Prices are quoted based on size, technique and design.

“My fascination with functional art has propelled me through a journey of exploration of color, design and texture. I have developed and designed my woven canvas rugs and wall hangings through a combination of affinities: common materials personalized expression and the interaction of traditional and historical change. My ultimate desire is to evoke and create works of art that provide years of enjoyment generationally.”
