This Autumn I have kept playing in the studio. Making small screens, printing those on unique and found pieces of paper has given a weight to my work that grounds it. I am leaning into the errors, spilled ink, and the wonkiness of the printing process.
I am really excited to be pushing my work by printing on fabric. I work as a fabric printer, but until now kept my professional life separate from my art practice. I am making tapestries incorporating screen print and embroidery. The sweetness that the embroidery shows is just wonderful.
I am also excited to announce a few holiday shows to sell my work. I will have prints at Max’s Garage Press in Berkeley in December, and I will be tabling at the Books & Beers pop up at Ale Industries on November 27th, where I will have some of my new tapestry pieces.
<< Here are some small tapestries that I printed, waiting to be embroidered. I love the play between found paper and the fabric, how each brings something new to the piece.
Heres a few more photos from the studio too.
