At JG SWITZER, our painter’s palette is provided by local and Heritage breed sheep.

We “paint with wool” using a locally farmed canvas of Dorset and Suffolk wool from Bodega Bay.  Our "oil pigments" are different breeds of sheep. Wensleydale, Bluefaced Leicester, Shetland, Navajo-Churro, Icelandic, Gotland and Romney Fleeces are a few of the breeds used in our one-of-a-kind pieces.

We design, sew, and mill every piece at our workshop in The Barlow, a maker space in West Sonoma County, an hour north of San Francisco.
