I created this Self Portrait using naturally dyed fabrics, colored pencil, thread and batting.
I used Black Walnut, Eucalyptus leaves, Pokeberry and Pomegranate skins for the colors.
Over our lockdown, I was teaching Life Drawing online. I drew a self portrait out with my students. I turned this into a version that I redrew on fabric with colored pencil. I then free motion quilted over it.
Over a show at the Museum of Northern California Art I sewed the background together over zoom with a treadle sewing machine that i rebuilt. I then stitched these together after.
It recently ventured to a show in Fayetteville, North Carolina. It was called, “Material World: A Contemporary Fiber Art Exhibition.
If you live in the Chico area, choose the Store Pick up option. You can then schedule a time with me for pick up.
This is priced for shipping within the US. If this is over the cost of materials and shipping there will be a partial refund.
I am not currently shipping outside of the US.
