Brian Jenkins In a recent Email Brian wrote "I've been a basketmaker for 10 or 12
years now, I'm self taught, just started by playing with vines and things in my yard. One
thing led to another, I became hooked and now I weave non traditional baskets using old,
large honeysuckle vines as frames and weave with a variety of natural ingredients,
including cattails, bulrushes, virginia creeper, yucca, seagrass and reed. A large part
of creating a basket is the beginning gathering stage, finding just the right vine for the
vessel it wants to become. I live near the ocean in New Jersey, there's lot's of wild
things around. " Your submission can be added to the gallery!
