Born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in 1937, Helenn Rumpel is an
internationally renowned fine art and multi-media artist, lecturer, and teacher
based out of Santa Fe, New Mexico. The artisan held many workshops, including
an annual retreat to Hermit's Peak, located thirty miles northwest of Las
Vegas, New Mexico, that had reached 26 years running. Additionally, Rumpel is a
member of Artist Equity, the Embroiderers' Guild of America, Inc., and the
National Standards Council of American Embroiderers.
She is considered a transitional artist who has transcended needle
crafts, from which fine art fiber grew, to establish "a
true medium of creative expression like painting or sculpture." The
artist had two grown sons and several grandchildren.
