About Heksedans

Welcome to Heksedans

My name is Mary, a Fiber Artist & Pyrography Artist rooted in the awe-inspiring landscapes of the Pacific Northwest where mist-shrouded mountains and ancient forests weave their magic into every thread of my craft. With a Holistic Health Practitioner Certification encompassing over 1,000 hours of training, an AA degree from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, not to mention a lifetime of creating art, my journey has been a tapestry of learning and exploration. A long and winding spiritual path has led me to the realm of Nordic Animism, where I honor the sacred rhythms of nature, Landvættir, and our planet, dedicated to finding ethical sources and a more sustainable line of craft and business.

Through my art, I channel the essence of the old ways, working with natural fibers like wool fleece, silk, and cotton, as well as materials imbued with ancestral power ~ bone, antler, and wood. Each creation is a unique offering: needle-felted fleece mantles, pyrography wood works, hand embroidery, original merchandise, and Valhalla Ladders. Under the name Heksedans ~ Danish for Witch Dance ~ I celebrate the beauty of craftsmanship entwined with the wisdom of the earth, forging a connection between the timeless and the tangible.
