Terrariums

I've been obsessively making terrariums for over a year now. A new bunch will be available at Royal Bison and they are currently available at Nokomis on Whyte Avenue (including the big one below). I've had great feedback on the ones I sold last year. I'll be posting photos of exactly what will be available at the fair soon and you can let me know which ones to hold!

The last few weeks work

This Melton Wool Skirt is one of the pieces I will be producing for the Royal Bison Art and Craft Fair. I love felt.

Here are some photos of my recent commissions on my trusty "Adjust-o-matic Dress Form" and some modeled by myself and my lovely friends.

Painting

La Fabrique also likes to paint. This is the beginning of a series that was supposed to be of chairs, but turned into paintings of dresses that I have made. This is the closest I will ever come to paintings the figure again since I finished school. I tend to work with furniture as still-life, but this series is giving me insight into the nature of the objects I like to paint.

Four dress paintings are showing at The Artery as of last night, the opening of the City Market Apartment Art show, Or What!?!, is this Friday night!

La Fabrique Construction Drawings

As objects, my pieces are formally line-based and sculptural. This style of drawing is how I design.
