Labyrinth III

Mixed Media Fiber Artist

Diane was making string art in the ‘60s when she was supposed to be studying psychology. She now creates mixed media fiber art pieces for the wall, when not at her day job as a creativity coach. Her contemporary abstracts interlace the realities of dreams, relationships, and nature; layered depths evoke the interplay of what's above and below the surface.  

Drawing on her City and Guilds design training, she transforms richly hand-dyed fabrics with wax media, stamping, and monoprinting. Once assembled with collage and stitchery, many are overpainted with encaustic (pigmented wax). Working in series, she explores themes in both artquilt and framed formats (Itchy Feet, Peoplescapes, Monkish Ways, Small Offerings).
