Textile Republic



One of my latest projects has been to create textile designs for Textile Republic, where fabric designs are created by anyone with a desire to express their creativity in this way (could be you!) and voted on by textile designers and you, the viewing public. This Cleveland area company will manufacture the winning designs. Go to the title link to see my designs, and then hit home to see others.

Vote!

News

Art Experiences is expanding in several directions!

Draw and Paint classes are expanding, and the schedule is posted at the link.

Imagination Arts workshops are being offered in North Olmstead at Securely Anchored Wellness Center; at the VA Medical Center, Brecksville; in Bedford during Draw and Paint classes; and will soon be available at the ART Showcase Gallery in the galleria, Cleveland as a lunchbreak workshop.

Wilderness Art has expanded into textile design with pastel images that are transformed into repeatable images for printing on fabric. Enter "wildernessartist" in the search box in the Browse Designs page or click here.

Go to Textile Republic Home to see the top rated designs. Each click of Home brings up a new selection. Help your favorite designs to be printed onto fabric by voting and leaving comments. Sign-up is easy. Textile Republic is owned by a local Cleveland entrepreneur.

I have always used photography as a way to capture those images I want to later make into artworks. Now, a new category of photographs are available to purchase. Kaleidoscope Mandalas are actual photographs I took of "scenes" inside my hand crafted kaleidoscope. They are available as giclee prints on canvas online or at ART Showcase Gallery.

I have signed on with Mind Body Soul Connect to provide Imagination Arts workshops, retreats, and keynote presentations in NorthEast Ohio and across the country.

2008 promises to be very busy and rewarding!
