What do you do? I was
asked this about 18 years ago. My response: I’m a hand stitcher but, if could put paper,
paint, fabric and stitch all in one work I would be in my happy place.
My blog sort of tracks my progress towards this end. I have wandered and got lost on the way. However, that has been to my advantage as I
have learnt new skills. Most recently my
focus has been working in mixed media collage with found and painted papers and
scraps of this and that.
And, I have been thinking about working more stitch into some
of my works.
I decided I should do some self guided study and see what I
can learn from other artists.
I am really drawn to collages by Debbie Lyddon. She uses cloth paper and fibre together with
materials which reflect the subject of her work. I have
copied one of her textile collages below.
Please look at Debbie Lyddon's website and blog to find more :-)
