Stenciled ultrasuede fabric projects

Once the paint was dry on the ultrasuede that I had stenciled I couldn't resist cutting it up and working with it. I've been wanting to make myself a new bag for a while now so that was the first...

Stenciling fabric

I think I mentioned a few posts back that I had bought a few yards of black ultrasuede from the fabric store that was going out of business in my area. Well I've been meaning to do some painting on...

A new piece of art & an interview

I've been a fan of Karen's work for a while now. I don't think she's ever posted a piece of work that didn't make me stop and say WOW. So I'm thrilled beyond description to now have a piece of...

About Me:
The questions "what if" or "how can I" are the ones that motivate me the most in the studio. It's the exploration of finding and discovering new ways to manipulate and embellish paper and fabric that drive me into the studio and inspire me every day.

I rarely work in flat surfaces except during the initial design process, which for me is usually just a list of scribbled notes on a page in my notebook. I enjoy working in 3D and creating sculptural objects, such as boxes or vases, or functional ones like journals and sketchbooks. The challenge of taking a flat surface created with paper, fabric or a combination of both and giving it form to stand on its own is incredibly exciting to me.

My goal is not to create a perfect and flawless item. It is to create a piece that excites the viewers eyes when they look at it, makes them wonder when they hold it in their hands and inspires their own imagination when they consider how it was created.

Letters from Grace...

There were a couple of challenges I had to deal with to work with these letters. First off was the fact that they were written by a 7 year old so it was important to me to create a book that reflected that. I didn't want anything too sophisticated looking so I decided to use cork paper and chalkboard cloth for this project. The second challenge was that there were no envelopes for these letters. It appears that they were all opened and stored flat because there are no real creases set in any of… Continue

I've been working on this book for the last few weeks:

Inside this book are 24 letters written over a period from September 1881 to December 1883 to a Miss Nancy A Austin in Yorkville from a gentleman named W M Moody. In these letters W writes of his love for Nancy and of how he wish… Continue
