Painting and printing on cloth as though creating a canvas painting.The Studio-Scrap-Quilt series featuring mono-printed cotton collaged with my studio discards! Please see my Gallery Shop for availability. Each work starts with a piece of monotype fabric to inspire the entire design. My paint board or a gel plate is loaded with textile paint and manipulated into a pleased design then the fabric is printed from it. From this print I cut out my favorite part then begin building a design around it using traditional sewing methods and then add various embellishments such as embroidery, felting, hand-made papers, buttons, beads etc. Each piece is framed in a hand-built hardwood frame that I custom paint to flatter the finished work.
