Small Seascapes

What's fun about fibre art you can make it a large piece or a small piece.  I prefer smaller pieces that I like to frame and living here on the West Coast, the ocean is a great inspiration.  I made a series of 3 pieces using a variety of fibres such as organza, hand dyed silk, wool, eyelash yarn,  and cotton balls.

Tsukienko Inks and Cheese cloth painting day!

It's a sunny afternoon and I'm out on the deck and decided it was a great day to ink up some cheese cloth. Cheese cloth creates wonderful texture to any fibre art piece, and you can create such a lovely array of coloured fibres by using a paint brush, water and inks.  Once they are dry, just heat set them with an iron.

Tomorrow it will be Paj silk and inks....so stay tuned!

What's new in my world! Well as you know I'm one to look at what's around me that I can use to give me the feeling that I'm there. Sand added to my piece, 606 and an applique pressing cloth gave me the look I wanted in the first picture known as "To the water". I'm now working on a piece called "Rippington's Farm" which is in Pitt Meadows on Rippington Road. I took a picture back in 2012 and decided this is my next piece.
