Hello, I'm Janice King, a fiber artist and writer who has long had a deep sense of place in the forests of the Pacific Northwest. My work encompasses art quilting, textile collage and art knitting, combining new with rescued or repurposed materials. Although I have been a lifelong writer, I became an artist in midlife and I feel my creativity is just getting started!
For the artEAST community art center in Issaquah, Washington, I was an exhibit artist, curator, and community programming organizer for multiple shows. In 2024, I was selected for a Centrum artist residency at Fort Worden and as the first artist-in-residence for the Issaquah Arts Sanctuary. I also cofounded the Eastside Art Quilters group, am a long-time nature walk leader, and author of the local walking guidebook, Eastside Seattle Walks.

"My art encourages viewers
to look for and create deeper connection with place.
I hope they learn to enjoy the direct experience a place offers
and the insights it can bring for understanding
the journey and lessons of our lives."
-- Janice King, fiber artist
