New Pieces Heading to 4 Ravens Gallery

Posted on by under Announcements, mixed media, nuno felting

I sold most of my pieces at 4 Ravens Gallery so I made a few more to take down to Missoula, MT.

Framed Nuno Felted Landscape with Beargrass in Foreground
Renewal – 8″ x 10″ – Framed – Available – $140 – 4 Ravens Gallery

Renewal was created as a sample for my upcoming online class Nuno Felting – Fiber + Fabric.

Framed Nuno Felted Landscape with Birch Trees in Foreground
Resilience – 16″ x 19″ – Framed – Available – $525 – 4 Ravens Gallery

Here’s another sample from the online nuno felting class. I added a few silk paper trees with silk organza leaves.

Framed Nuno Felted Landscape with Forest in Autumn
Transitions – 16″ x 28″ – Framed – Available – $785 – 4 Ravens Gallery

Transitions uses a nuno felted background created by my friend Paula and I added the trees and foliage. I guess I’m ready for autumn!

Framed Textile Landscape with Dead Tree and Eagle on Branch
Sanctuary – 16″ x 21″ – Framed – Available – $575 – 4 Ravens Gallery

I updated Sanctuary to add in the eagle on the branch. It reminds me of the eagles around here that always seem to be sitting in a dead tree.

Tranquility’s Edge – 15″ x 26.5″ Framed – Available – $700.00

I just love the colors in Tranquility’s Edge, so lush and verdant. If you’re in the Missoula area, I hope you will stop by 4 Ravens Gallery. They carry some amazing artwork from local Montana artists.

The First Leaf and First Light Framed

Posted on by under Announcements, applique, nuno felting

The framers have completed framing on two of my recent pieces. These will be going to 4 Ravens Gallery in Missoula and should be available after February 14th.

Framed textile artwork depicting birch trees in autumn.
The First Leaf – 14″ x 18.5″ – Framed – Available – $450.00

This one based on birch trees in autumn, is called The First Leaf. I love the texture of the nuno felt against the smoothness of the birch trunks. The birch trunks are made from silk paper.

Framed textile artwork depicting trees at dawn with light coming from behind.
First Light – 13″ x 19″ – Framed – Available – $450.00

First Light is all about how the morning sun reacts in the forest. The color palette was an interesting change for me but I enjoyed the challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!

Shades of Green Applique

Posted on by under applique, hand stitching, Level 3 Stitch

For one of my applique projects in Level 3 Stitch, I decided to use a nuno felted background and create a piece similar to the ones that I make to sell in a gallery. Here’s the beginning of Shades of Green. Guess what? It reminded me of a forest, so on to the applique.

I added silk organza for the tree trunks, a mix of chopped up fabric for the leaves and stitching for the highlights. The finished piece was framed and is now hanging in my hallway.
