Artist
Statement: "Protection" and "Lost at Sea 2" are pieces that were created with a combination of hand painted and screen printed fabrics that are then sewn together to make the finished work. The designs for the prints were done with Photoshop software. I work abstractly with materials from nature, items related to textile production and other sources of inspiration in my environment. I prefer to discover new directions in the process of creating rather than having a definite image of my final piece in mind. It is this process of discovering something new and exciting that I hope to share with my viewer. |
