Carolann Parr Art

  December 2023 I explored some mix media artist who work in a more textile/fiber media as well as patch work. Libby Williamson Williamson creates fiber art, using layers of paint, dye, print, fabric and other. She creates a lot of work that resembles elements of the natural world, such as plants and the patterns/textures found on trees. I like the close up details she creates with her stitch work, creating a piece that people can stay and look at for a while, finding new shapes/patterns within the stitch work.

With these broken peices i expeirmented with stacking them, creating huts like peices. These peices are building new home/sheltesr from and old one, reminding me of rubble from homes after natural diasters, what have been turned into tempary shelters.  I also experimented with shadows using these, creating 2d peices with the shadows that reminds me of rock formations.

  Sizing Photos 5th December 2023 On Tuesday i decided on the sizing of my images. I experimented with different sizes and amount of sizes and chose to do two sizes, one for each size pillow, being 2 and 3 inches. I chose those images as i can fit multiples images on one page and i can also use both sizes on both pillows, i chose to do 2 sizes to limit the amount of images to chose from but i still wanted deferent sizing options.
