Embroidery for 'presence, clarity of mind and connection to nature', says the California artist.
From riotously colored works to ones with bleached neutrals, Portland-area artist Felicia Murray imagines the landscape through fiber.
I finished it yesterday- close up of 'grasses by the canal' 11cm x 31cm. Paint and dye on calico. Hand stitched. 3 layers of fabric. Whole thing- but long and thin so difficult for photos. I tried to capture the bright light of summer and dappled shadows - something to work on ( next time, next time) I am pleased with it but always there is knowledge that it could be better and that is the drive that keeps me working! Hot summer days here- no rain for the garden. Meals eaten outside on the new patio under the parasol. Summer clothes.We are not used to this!

I used leaf stamps and Jacquard Lumiere paint on the heavier lutradur. I let it dry, then I cut them out and blasted them with the heat gun set on HIGH. I straightened them out while they were still hot (yes, I have burnt fingertips to prove it.) I'm not crazy about these. I will probably get out the paints and add a layer of color. These are the lighter weight of lutradur. I discovered that they look much nicer with the heat gun set at the lower setting and some extra patience. The "leaf" on the upper right was done on high, with the other two on low. It took a bit longer, but the result is more what I was hoping for -- a kind of lacy result. Again, I used the lower heat setting; but a much nicer result, I think. A little more heat and a little more patience would benefit this one. And because it's Halloween, I just had to use the spider web stamp. I used the high setting on the heat gun and it's almost dissolved. But still spooky, if you're into that...
