Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
This was inspired by a study of the work of Gustave Klimt. His highly decorative style translates well into textile. I wanted to express the enjoyment I found in studying Klimt for my final studies in textile art. Appropriately, it is a stitched art piece echoing Klimt's stylised depiction of woman and also a tight decorative patchwork background in a free, asymetrical way to try to emulate his dynamic decorative style. A little gold leaf has been added, naturally, as Klimt is closely associated with his use of that material. Techniques include couching down recycled sari yarn and stitched patchwork made from recycled Indian cotton. The hair is free-machine embroidery with wool. It has been stitched to acrylic felt and stretched onto acid-free background. It is framed in wood behind art glass (it does not reflect) which makes it heavy. The work is signed on the reverse.

I look for the potential decorative aspects contained in the the subject I wish to paint. Then it is about the process of creating an artist's viewpoint, rather than realism itself. This involves the elements of shape, thinking in terms of an overall pattern and then creating a pleasant mood through choosing colour(s). The aim is simply to enjoy the process of creating and hopefully another viewer of the artwork will have an enjoyable experience also. I think the best interpretation of what I attempt to produce is contained in a quotation from Matisse: “What I dream of is an art of balance, of purity and serenity devoid of troubling or depressing subject matter - a soothing, calming influence on the mind, rather like a good armchair which provides relaxation from physical fatigue.”
