Doris's Chinese water-color painting is the product of 11 years of study

under several masters in Taipei, Taiwan. She spent twenty-five years

before that painting, weaving and working in other crafts in the United

States. Born in Switzerland, she spent twenty-eight years in Europe

and then came to the U.S. with me.

A very small sample of her Chinese water color is given below. The pages

following show much of her craft work, done in the US and with her students

in Taiwan. Start with Doris at work.

Below is a landscape in the Ling Nan style produced as a student of Mr. Chiu Ding-Fu, who wrote the inscription. Mr. Chiu, a Taiwan master, is the teacher Doris has studied under for the longest time. This is a rather large painting (55x27 in) Doris made of her Yellow Mountain trip with Mr. Chiu and other students. I regret that my photos do not capture the brilliant light of the original.
