Sue Bleiweiss is the brains behind the Sketchbook Challenge - a group of artists that has taken many of us on a fantastic journey for the past year. I have learned much and made wonderful friends over there, and it has been a great pleasure to work with Sue.
Fabric Collage II by Sue Bleiweiss 34" x 24" |
Sue's work speaks to me - it is both richly textured and yet it is controlled and meticulously detailed. Love it.
Sue says: "I am fascinated with the challenge of creating texture both real and implied to a piece of fabric by using dyes, paints, and stitch to manipulate the surface of the fabric. My goal has never been to create a perfect and flawless surface. It is to create something that delights the eye, feeds the senses and fires the imagination."
Sue also works in various media - I've loved her sculptural works and especially her hand made books for a long time. Beautiful stuff.
Sue has posted a review of my DVD, Bead It Like You Mean It on her blog and is giving away a copy. Please head over to her blog and read what she thinks. Leave a comment to win.
Carol Sloane's giveaway is also still open if you haven't left a comment there.
