Heidi Bukoski grew up in an artistic household where she was able to try many art forms. Her love of fiber arts comes from her mother, and started with knitting in Girl Scouts. Weaving was added while in high school. Natural dyeing came in college. In the many years since then numerous other techniques have crossed her path. Weaving and traditional wet felting have remained  . Most recently forays into jewelry and wire work, and knotting and braiding have piqued her interest. Combining techniques, or taking them in unexpected directions is her favorite challenge.
