Simple post today as I am running late. Again off the ever-growing site Textileartist.org. As actual snow is expected to hit us today, something colorful is on the menu. Artist Jan Huling is perfect. She uses a massive amount of beads to embellish dimensional forms, using glue instead of thread. My Virgo self could never do this (lol) but I appreciate the design and craftsmanship of her amazing work. Her interview presents a practical working artist without a massive backlog of conceptual "blah blah," which is also refreshing. I wonder how much her sculptures weigh...oi!
