TEXTILE ART

 

Using this photograph of myself hiking, I painted with dyes the fabric above and then quilted it. I can do the same for you if you have a specific image you would like a hand painted onto fabric.

 

I PAINT MY LIFE. BOTANICAL, BIRDS AND LOCAL LANDSCAPES FASCINATE ME.  THESE VIGNETTES OF MY DAYS ARE TRANSFERRED TO PAPER WITH WATERCOLOUR, OR TO COTTON FABRIC WITH PAINTED DYES. OVER THE YEARS I HAVE DEVELOPED TECHNIQUES TO RICHLY PORTRAY THOSE SCENES IN MY ARTWORK.  FROM PLEIN AIR PAINTING TO STUDIO WORK, WHETHER IN WATERCOLOURS OR TEXTILE, MY PAINTINGS EVOKE A SENSE OF THE WORLD AROUND ME.
