Virginia’s wetlands play a critical role in the state’s ecosystem. They filter the ground water and provide habitats for many species. Wetlands here and nationwide are disappearing. I am fortunate to live near two important and protected wetlands in northern Virginia Dyke Marsh and Huntley Meadows and enjoy their beauty. I was inspired by both of these local wetlands to create this image of reeds reflecting in the water. I love imagining the fauna hidden in the reeds .

Machine quilting; fusible appliqué. Materials include: cotton and silk commercial fabrics.

Betsy True: I am a fiber artist and photographer living in northern Virginia. After retiring from my career as a computer specialist with the Department of Defense, I became a full-time quilter. I love developing art quilts based on photographs I have taken .
