It was a fun and interesting exercise ⁠ ⁠ ---⁠ ⁠

Textile Artists Inspired by Nature! 🍃⁠ ⁠ Lo Textile Artists Inspired by Nature! 🍃⁠ ⁠ Lorraine Roy⁠ ⁠ It may come as no surprise that Canadian textile artist, Lorraine Roy, is a scientist. Having studied natural sciences and ornamental horticulture, her knowledge and ongoing studies of trees is her primary source of inspiration. Her style is one that is natural, yet sometimes abstract but always demonstrates her understanding and love of nature.⁠ ⁠ She creates wall hangings and framed textiles using raw edge machine appliqué techniques and embroidery, using as old light industrial Bernina sewing machine. We love Larraine’s work because she shows us that nature really is beautiful! ⁠ ⁠ @lroy.art⁠ ⁠ Check out the full blog here: ⁠ https://www.sofst.org/textile-artists-inspired-by-nature-you-have-to-follow/⁠ ⁠ ⁠ 👉 click the link in our bio and head to blog⁠ ⁠
Textile Artists Inspired by Nature! 🍃⁠ ⁠ Ro Textile Artists Inspired by Nature! 🍃⁠ ⁠ Rosa Andreeva⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Moscow-based fibre artist Rosa Andreeva creates majestic, intricately detailed gardens which brim from cracked, long-forgotten teacups. By layering her canvases with skills, threads and beads, she stitches flowers, mosses, and floating pollen to create enchanted fairytale scenes.⁠ ⁠ We like her for ability to capture the whimsical feel of nature. Using a mixture of tight stitches with loose ends gives her work a 3 dimensional feel. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @roniy1983⁠ ⁠ Check out the full blog here: ⁠ https://www.sofst.org/textile-artists-inspired-by-nature-you-have-to-follow/⁠ ⁠ ⁠ 👉 click the link in our bio and head to blog⁠ ⁠
