Brenda Quashne - Basket Artist |
I am a native North Carolinian. Born and raised in Asheville, I was always exposed to the crafts of the mountain people and the native Cherokee Indians. I have always loved the intricate details of baskets.
After retiring, I explored various techniques in weaving with both
wood and reed and with cane and other materials. Although I enjoy working in all mediums, my favorite is the Nantucket Lightship Basket. To take pieces of wood and transform them into a useful, functional, and beautiful piece of art is not work - IT IS FUN!
