A textile fiber art piece depicting a deep-sea anglerfish against a stark black background, framed with a natural burlap border. The anglerfish is crafted primarily from various shades of denim fabric, featuring patchwork construction with visible stitching and small metal rivets or studs throughout its body.

The fish dominates the composition, facing right with its massive mouth wide open, revealing rows of sharp white triangular teeth set against vivid red gums and a black interior. A large circular eye with a beaded golden iris adds dramatic detail. The creature's signature bioluminescent lure extends from its head, ending in a soft glowing blue-white orb.

The fish's body showcases layered fabric fins with embroidered white line details, creating texture and dimension. Multiple shades of blue denim ranging from dark indigo to lighter washed tones give the creature depth and visual interest.

Two tiny fish rendered in embroidery and small fabric appliqué swim near the lower left of the composition, emphasizing the anglerfish's imposing scale by contrast. The overall mood is dramatic and slightly menacing, with the dark background enhancing the creature's predatory nature. The mixed textile techniques — including appliqué, embroidery, beading, and quilting — create a richly textured surface with impressive craftsmanship.

Happy to announce that "They Were Violet" was invited to be part of the Art Speaks show in Matthews at Bay School. This was an intensive piece and remains one of my favorite mixed media fiber pieces.

I'd been working on this piece off & on for a bit. Just got her sewn down to a 12*12 cradled board this morning. I'm so glad I snatched up some vintage doilies ❤️

The frame I had planned to put this piece in ended up having a nick in it, so I pivoted. This is the second time I've mounted embroidery on a wood panel, and I rather like it.

Dropped off "Monet's Pond" and "Pride is Year Round" off at Hilton Norfolk The Main today as part of the d'Art Center rotating gallery on the 1st floor. "Monet's Pond" is an older acrylic piece and "Pride..." is a recent piece.

Neuralgia
Mixed media embroidery
#embroidery #beading #mixedmediaembroidery

Created to portray the nerve pain I experience--from a middle fossa craniotomy in 2020--at the height of that pain. The pain is ongoing and I even recently missed work because of it.

My latest acquisition from the Shelter shop in Helensburgh. What a beauty. Obviously none of you are to Alan anything about this whatsoever! Right?! Thanks ❤️
