About
Marianne’s formal training is in geology, but as a daughter of a high school art teacher, she has explored many aspects of art and design since childhood.
She started to explore the fiber arts in 1985 when she began handweaving. Since 1996, Marianne has been creating nuno felt scarves, wraps, vests, jewelry and other women’s clothing and accessories. She has been teaching felting since 2000 and sells her felt clothing and sculpture under the Arcady Designs and duBois deRoche labels. She lives in Midcoast Maine.
“Felt as a medium has so many forms, it can be soft and diaphanous or rigid and sculptural. I so enjoy exploring its possibilities.”
