Lisa’s Weaving History During undergraduate school, Lisa took a weaving course as an elective and fell in love. She moved from a Fine Art’s Major (spending most of the time painting and drawing) to Ag. where weaving classes were housed and finished her degree with an Individual Major of Community Art. She started her Weaving business, Loomside Productions in 1981, the year after graduation and proceeded to sell her items at the Whole Earth Festival as well as other craft fairs around California. Lisa moved to Salinas where she joined other weavers and spinners and knitters and broadened her skill set to include dyeing, carding, spinning and knitting. Then 1988 she moved to St. Paul, Minnesota and joined the Weavers Guild there. Rag Rug weaving as well as Double Weave Pick -up were among the types of weaving that she concentrated on during the 3 years there. Back in California Lisa joined The Artery, an Artist Cooperative store in Downtown Davis. Later she went back to school to get her Masters of Fine Arts in Textile Arts, focusing on the making and history of weaving.
