About

I am a Canadian artist in Calgary, Alberta, working primarily with textiles. I'm curious, eccentric and just a little opinionated. Surrealist in thought, Fauvist at heart, this is my almost daily art journal, eccentric and eclectic, explorative and absurd.

Some of the padding and quilting done:

Topography of Woman, second stage

More padding, shaping and quilting to be done, as well as final embellishments. So far, it's about 21x23 inches and will be finished as an irregular shape.

Darn! I want to touch this soooo badly!! I have the need to not only see with my eyes but 'see' with my hands too. I can imagine the most wonderful texture...

I'm standing right there next to Mary Anne wanting to touch as well as see the rich colors and textures. I want to see the other side, too.

Thanks the "two a ya both" :} The textures *are* fabulous--i've tried taking photos to show some depth, but have to figure out a proper setup first to do it properly.
Nellie, the backside isn't that interesting as each layer of padding gets covered by the next, so that i can create more depth in some areas.
