Inspirational Artist: Gorgeous Textiles from Diane Savona

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

I love being a part of a larger arts community!  This morning I opened my email to a blog post from fabulous fiber artist, Rayna Gilman.  Her post featured images from a show by textile artist Diane Savona.  I was so hooked by her work that I thought I would feature her myself.

Diane seems to play in the same areas of artistic exploration  that I do:  ancient languages, maps, fossils, and tribal imagery.   Within these frameworks she also explores issues of domesticity.  I love her interpretation.  Her work is fantastic!  Take a look: http://www.dianesavonaart.com/index.html

 

I am off to the Laura Cater Woods workshop this morning.  My trusty bug ended up in the shop all day yesterday (failed water pump) after a dramatic drive back from Tuesday’s guild meeting with half the instrument panel lights flashing.    I couldn’t find one to borrow, so I missed the first day.  I will have to make up for lost time today!
