Carol Weatherman lives in a growing little town of Mustang, Oklahoma. It is just west of Oklahoma City. Carol is a self taught artist. Her focus is early wool hooked rugs creating pieces in a wide variety of sizes portraying animals, pictorials and floral. She dyes and cuts all the wool used in her creations. Careful consideration is used when dyeing to reproduce the warm muted and drab hues of the traditional rugs. She has been hooking rugs and creating patterns for over twelve years, truly loving when an idea becomes a finished rug, but says nothing is more rewarding than when a customer finds a piece perfect for their home.
AACW023 Basket of Flowers Hooked Rug by Carol Weatherman $539.
There is an wonderfully artist in central Maine. Her name is Karla Gerard. She paints in a very folk, abstract way. She has turned some of her original art into hooked rug patterns, very new to the market. The colors in her paintings are very bright, but Caro Weathermanl, being a lover of primitives, has used muted colors to create this gorgeous large rug. It's hard to tell in the photos, but the flowers are hooked uneven to give it a naive feel. There are little knots in the background that stand higher then the background, as well as on the basket, giving this rug great interest. The background is done in a very light mixture pale tan, white and blue. The bottom is done in soft golds, suggesting the basket is sitting on a table. The primitive blooms are done in off white, mustard, blue and terra cotta. The rug measures 23-3/4 inches by 28-1/2 inches. I can't say enough about this rug. This is a very special item. A collaboration of two artists in one. You can imagine how much work has gone into creating it! A great price for such a beautiful work of art. $539. Includes shipping.
