Deb Culig is a fiber artist creating handmade 100% alpaca western hats at her ranch in a high mountain valley in Tabernash, Colorado, near the Winter Park Ski Resort.

My current work is mostly in variations on Raku, with post-fire, pre-reduction sprays of ferric chloride and all sorts of other ingredients. I use a lot of slip trailing, impressions, and employ a variety of materials to do the reductions, including dropped ponderosa pine needles from Colorado.
