MICHELLE JOHNSON - LAUGHING CLOUD STUDIO
|
My fiber art journey began in earnest at the Kansas City Art Institute. As I walked by the fiber studio daily to attend my foundation classes I became intrigued by the brief glimpses of color, texture, and patterning. Serendipity? Yes, and after 30 years I am still deeply committed. Hand created felt has been my focus since I took a ‘I wonder what this is’ one day workshop in 2004. I fell head over heels in wooly fluff. With soap, water, and patience the hand rolling and rubbing process allows the wool fibers to co-mingle becoming permanently entangled and creating a strong firm textural piece. The felting process allows me to experiment, play, transform and create beautifully textured wall pieces and sculptured textiles.
I'm happy to answer any questions about my artwork. mj@laughingcloudstudio.com or 928-379-0475 (call, text)
