Beautiful bodies come in all sizes

A Narrative…

Image
 When I was in university (BFA), I focused my entire body of work on exploring timelines. I would curate family photos in such way they would create a visual story to anyone who would explore. I silkscreened most on my artwork and instead of focusing on multiples in a series, I used the concept of multiples within one artwork. This is one example. It shows my parents at their happiest of times when they were in their 20s.  This work will be integrated into my next batch of shirts coming in another post.

It's Market Season

I love meeting new people. It makes me even happier when folks try on my shirts and they instantly fall in love with the design, fit and fabric.

TUNICS - a work in progress

Image
Lately I have started experimenting with tunics. I am still developing a pattern and am looking into different fabric options. I have only a few samples that are available. Priced individually.

Printmaking....my first love

Image
Making things is the creative outlet that I've always had. Before I learned how to sew, I experimented with textile design. My background is in silkscreening and painting. I often find myself revisiting printmaking as a medium, weather it's silkscreening or lino block printing. I experiment on fabric, paper and even on clay.  Portrait and Hand Studies Experiments with texture Experiments with printmaking on clay

A Special Project

The making of a shirt...

Image
Each shirt is carefully curated from a series of fabrics that I collect over time. I love collaborating with surface design artists and I often use spoonflower to source my fabrics.
