Ali is a graduate of the University of Iowa Art Department and is a current elementary art teacher in the Pleasant Valley CSD. Being self-taught, she takes a free-form approach to weaving, breaking conventional rules commonly found in the traditional art form.

This tapestry is made using a wide variety of hand-woven techniques. The fibers used in this piece are both synthetic and natural and range in texture and weight. The fringe at the bottom is constructed in three layers of hand-dyed macrame cord. The tapestry itself is displayed on a birch branch collected by the artist in the woods of northern Minnesota.

This is the 3rd of the four Medusae in my series "Medusa in the Modern Age." The third is an interpretation of the ancient Medusa seen on the temple of Artemis at The Isle of Corfu, Greece where she was portrayed as a guardian and protector. I chose rainbow colors for Medusa's snakes and the phrase "Squares Beware." I painted two pink triangles in my lettering for Squares in honor of the activist group Act Up.

In this second of four Medusae in my series of "Medusa in the Modern Age," Medusa has her back turned. We can see she is wearing a biker jacket painted with her own image as inspired by the Medusa on the Temple of Artemis, Isle of Corfu, Greece. In this version she is looking askance for anyone who might threaten her well being.

This is the 1st of four Medusae in my series of "Medusa in the Modern Age." This first Medusa has a world-weary look and I imagine her defiantly proclaim, "Persius Lied!" She is still alive today and is a symbol of protection, strength, and fierce femininity.

This striking 1988 print was created to commemorate the Boston Museum of Science's blockbuster exhibition Ramesses the Great, which celebrated the life and legacy of one of ancient Egypt's most powerful pharaohs. The artwork features a detailed and regal depiction of Ramesses II, often called "Ramesses the Great," renowned for his military leadership, monumental architecture, and enduring legacy in Egyptian history. With rich colors and a commanding composition, the print evokes the grandeur of ancient Egypt and the awe-inspiring presence of the pharaoh. It served both as a promotional piece for the exhibition and as a lasting tribute to the timeless fascination with Egypt's ancient civilization.
