Rachelle Gardner is a mixed media artist from the US. At the moment she is focusing on fibers and textiles. Some of her recent work is lace felt which she creates by free motion embroidery on water soluble stabiliser and hand dyed wool which is then lightly felted to produce beautiful pieces in rich colours with intricate designs. On her blog she has examples of
some of her recent work and also a
post showing the process.
Rachelle is also about to embark on an adventurous project transforming her 2-D lace work into large scale 3-D sculpture.
If you'd like to know more about that, visit her
Aspen Project website, there's even the opportunity for you to be involved and help with the costs of the project. Everyone who helps out receives a credit and also a reward of beautiful unique artwork, made individually for each person.
Thank you for the post Zed! I appreciate it and I've shared it on facebook and twitter.
