Robin Underwood is a lifelong Alaskan who lives in the Copper River Valley. She works primarily in fiber, making wool felt and spinning sled dog fur. She also dabbles in watercolor, metal tooling and other crafts. She recently worked with second and third grade students to make a felted mural of the salmon life cycle. Her salmon sculpture is covered with hundreds of cedar and pine shingles. It is a northern version of the Trojan Horse, clad in wood, copper and bronze and wearing a Legionnaire’s helmet—it is a prize any fisherman would open the gates for. But don’t look this gift horse in the mouth or you’ll see the invading army it carries.
