Speaking of Cloth

Speaking Of Cloth, a collaborative piece with Leanne Nickon and Shira Singer

Artist Statement

The best part of working with Shira and Leanne has been the companionable experimenting, discovering new ways of playing with tried and true techniques in coloring cloth.

There’s a letting go of expectations for great artistic results and of most self-judgement, although occasionally the phrase “pig’s breakfast” does enter my mind.  The process of experimenting with resist techniques is endlessly fascinating and I enjoy the constant element of surprise.  One can never entirely predict what one will end up with.
