Ellie Fernald's Astounding Art Work

I had the extreme pleasure of seeing Ellie Fernald's work up close and my mind is still boggled. Ellie creates her work with thread that she lays down into wax. Her color selections and subject matter are delightful, rich and inviting. There is a common thread throughout all of her life's work, from ceramics to painting to bead work to the thread paintings. It's all so detailed and painstakingly intricate.

Please look at Ellie's website because that's the only place you will see her work. Ellie doesn't show her work in galleries or have exhibits  in museums, much to my dismay. When and if she does I'll be sure to let you know.

Re Store 9th Annual Art &Fashion Show

This is only a portion of Jane Meagher's piece that is in the current Re Store Art Show at Blowing Sands. Jane used toilet paper tubes, cotton rags, newspapers, white glue, wheat paste and acrylic paint. It hangs from the ceiling. It's reminiscent of sun bleached tree roots. The tubes crisscross and connect in ways roots do not however.That's Kerrie D. in the shot.
