Working on the template for my largest piece yet. Everything gets drawn out to size before I cut it out in fabric

I recently released a couple new prints, including this one of my textile piece titled “Flowers and Shapes”.

Luxury fashion sometimes feels like a dystopian display of the huge wealth disparity that exists. I know this, but I’m also a textile obsessed artist who appreciates beauty so I’m torn because these two looks from Valentino are so fucking cool and I want them.

And throughout the year, I get asked if I will make patchwork for people’s own personal jackets. And I do but only once a year! For the entire month of February, I offer custom patchwork. So if you like these cool patches and want one on your jacket check out my website! #customclothing

In addition to appliqué tapestries and artwork, I also make appliqué patchwork that I soaked to the back of vintage and secondhand jackets. All made from repurposed fabric, of course. #secondhandclothing #repurposedclothing

Thinking about this piece while I’m under the weather today. It’s called “The Rest”. It’s large at 4 1/2 ft.² It’s meant to glorify and uplift the concept of rest, because it’s too easy to not do enough of it. #textileart #baroque #repurposedart #tapestry

This is one of my current favorites. Gold is my favorite color, so maybe that’s why! Made from repurposed fabric and a wee bit of paint. I use some appliqué quilt techniques in my process, too. #surrealism #textileart #artist #mixedmedia

I’ve been doing more floral work lately, mostly inspired by Dutch Baroque floral still life paintings. But doing my own thing with it and of course, always made from repurposed textiles.

This piece was a gift for my best friends milestone birthday. It is completely made from repurposed textiles using appliqué quilting techniques. It has a trompe l’oeil frame, also made from fabric!

A piece from a Baroque body of work I’m currently creating. This is made with repurposed fabric and set in a vintage frame. It’s called “Heartbreak is embarrassing.” #heartbreak #fiberart #artist

This is one of my appliqué tapestries called TEARS. It’s basically a temple of crying. Please come to the temple if you need to.😢

It’s my first day😊! I’m an artist, working exclusively with repurposed textiles to make tapestries and clothing.
