ALL CONTEMPORARY ART PIECES NOW AVAILABLE DIRECTLY FROM THE ARTIST.
These pieces of large-scale fabric art are looking for a home in your residence or office. It is incredibly hard to put a price on one-of-kind, handmade, original art, which is why I'm now opening up this contemporary art for bids. Under each art piece description, you will find the materials cost, plus the time it took to make the piece. If you like what you see, please email me and we can chat about your bid.
They are shipped using courier from Canada (not through Canada Post) and can be in most places in North America by Christmas if purchased by December 6th. This art is made with fine fabrics and should be installed away from direct light and flame.
"Narcissus"
This is the design that brought me to this form of contemporary art. In love with the narcissus that blooms each spring out of the snow and muddy earth, I wanted to see of I could colour block something so subtle. Making such a big piece of art made it possible to do. It has a never ending joyfulness to it!

"Reeds"
This little piece of lake could be our favourite lake anywhere. The horizontal ripples juxtaposed by the vertical reeds just sing out with the glossy glare of the lake’s surface. The cream coloured silk used to form this surface is the perfect fabric to translate a gentle, silky feel.

LABOUR: 46 Hours
"Forest Floor"
Inspired by Cathedral Grove Park and all the amazing areas of British Columbia that hold huge old trees and dense undergrowth – from the Lower Mainland to Revelstoke to the North Coast. I love how the sun filters through and selectively acts like a spotlight on the ferns and moss on trees. The challenge was finding a black fabric that didn’t look quite so much like a black object, but a black space. This fabric has a grey or white overtone to it that does the job nicely.

LABOUR: 48.5 Hours
"Lakeshore Sentries"
I have always wanted to use rocks at a shoreline in fabric art – during the winter when they have those lovely hats of snow on – so amazing! These lakeshore sentries are also from a lake in winter, but in north west British Columbia where the lake was not frozen, nor was there snow at this point. But the water has a very still quality to it, and the light on the rocks very low.
