Vortex Rising

About This Piece

Inspired by my time exploring red rock country and the magic energy of those spiralling up vortexes. I was enchanted by the colours - those layered desert canyons in every shade of rust, ember, and ochre. The texture just kept building as I went, loops on loops, spilling right off the edges. There was no keeping this one contained, which felt like exactly the point.

Materials: Variety of wool (including yarn from my mother-in-law's vintage collection). Woven on 100% cotton hung on Canadian soft wood dowel.

Size: 43" x 35" (including dowel to bottom of fringe)

Every piece is one of a kind. If it speaks to you, make it yours now!

A Few Notes

• The loops and fringe may enjoy a light finger-combing and fluffing from time to time to keep them in line. Enjoy that little interactive moment with your art.
• Most of the yarns are hand-dyed in small batches (not by me!). This lends to the beautiful variations and humanness of every one-of-a-kind piece that I make. This also means that even if I wanted to, I could never recreate this exact piece again.

• I have done my very best to represent the true tone of the artwork in the images provided. Also, keep in mind that life is not a backlit screen.
