A Fantastic New Book!

20/3/2022

I had a birthday at the end of last month and have been wanting a specific book for ages. My lovely sister gave it to me  for my birthday and I am slowly working my way through it.

'Dimensional Cloth' by Andra F. Stanley
Foreward by Jospephine Stealey

​If  you are interested in 3-dimensional work of any kind, particularly in  textiles then this is a must-have.
The book features the work of 78 artists and is wonderfully illustrated throughout. It's easy to dip into and and read about the work of one artist at a time so that you can really enjoy it. I find reading and looking at too much at one time overwhelming so this is the perfect format for me. A few highlights of the book follow . . . .

There are so many amazing examples I could've chosen to show here but I just dipped in and snapped a photo of whatever caught my eye.
The last 2 are particular favourite as I have a bit of a history of making vessels myself.
​More on that another time.

    Hi, I’m Alison. An artist and designer/maker.
    I feel like I have a bit of split working personality - I have my Etsy shop and then I have my work as an exhibiting and selling artist. I’m hoping this blog is a place where I can combine the two halves.
