There is nothing worse than setting aside time to “create” and then you find yourself staring at your screen, or a piece of paper, or a blank canvas waiting for creativity to hit. And nothing happens! Can you relate? Let me share with you tips that I follow when I’m facing a creative block.
I’m excited to announce that I’ve just opened up shop on Society 6, with a collection of four art prints. These prints are digital recreations inspired by my original designs that I hand carved on a linoleum block and printed on paper and fabric.
Please make note that orders placed from February 18 - March 16, will ship on March 17. Any client design projects that I’m already working on will continue as planned and I’m available to start new design work in March!
Follow my progress on my instagram page as I participate in #The100DayProject for a second year! This year my chosen project is hand-lettering and illustrative lettering!
Small artworks by 60 artists (including one of my pieces!) have been selected to participate in the Textile Arts Center With Care Exhibition and Auction. All proceeds from the sales support the TAC AIR Scholarship fund. The artwork is on view at the Textile Arts Center until December 5th (in Brooklyn) and open for online bidding.
I’m excited to announce that a small collection of my one-of-a-kind items are part of the CraftBoston Holiday 2021 market. In addition, RSVP to watch my Fabric Printing demo (virtual event) on December 9th!
Earlier this month I had the pleasure of hosting an online glass painting workshop for a corporate client. I provided the ‘how-to' technique and inspiration and they brought enthusiasm and creativity! Read this post to learn more.
In this post, I’ll show you two shibori binding techniques: one is a simple binding technique using dry chickpeas and elastic bands and the other is a spider-web binding technique using cotton thread. Both producing unique and wonderful patterns!
This is part 2 of my creative education series focused on Shibori Dyeing. In the post, I provide an overview of the types of fabric I use, binding and clamping materials, the types of dyes that can be used and other equipment needed.
I’ve been hand-dyeing fabric for several years. I can’t remember exactly when I got started, but I just remember being immediately drawn to how a plain piece of cloth could be transformed into unique patterns simply by tying, scrunching or binding fabric before submerging it in dye.
