Featured Artist: Lynette Holmes

During the eight weeks of 'simply irRESISTible' we'll focus on individual artists here on our blog. Every week, three artists will be featured. Today, we're pleased to introduce to you: Lynette Holmes from Fernindana, FL.



About the Piece: "Hibiscus is one of a trilogy of Asian inspired handwoven wall scrolls. The yarns were first painted with dye in simplified Ikat, then woven with a supplementary warp, pleated and dyed.

Using drawings of my garden plants, I cut a stencil of the hibiscus, printed the image on the handwoven fabric and embellished with stitching."
