When I occasionally pick up a copy of . The Pastel Journal,. Ossuik's realization that it was impossible for him to transfer emotion, colour and the power of light by blindly following nature, helped him to develop his thinking about painting. I realized the inevitability of adornment, he says. remember that Matisse said. Accuracy is not truth.

Through the studio door. Wednesday, November 25, 2009. Many thanks to all the wonderful people I spoke to over the past year, both visitors and fellow artists. I have also set up my own website and continue to tinker with it to find the perfect fit for me. Workwise, I am still making small folk art inspired textile pieces, mostly in themes for children. They are alot of fun to create and I think quite unique. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Through the studio door. View my complete profile.

Through the studio door. Wednesday, June 16, 2010. MIxed media textile art. Originally uploaded by Janice Saunders. It is very hard to define textile art as it includes many different styles and materials. These little folk art pieces developed from a little experimentaion with my felting machine. They are mostly 4x4" to 6x6" in size. I added wool felt images and then beads and buttons and finally thread details to build them up in a 3 dimensional way. They need a shadow box style frame.

Through the studio door. Monday, April 26, 2010. The snow is gone and I am looking forward to getting out with my camera.

Are they packages dropped from the heavens? 160; . 160; . Maybe there is something to see with new eyes in the spring. Maybe there is another world to imagine. create.or find.
