A short answer is that is comes from a study and love of African textiles, and a gut response to Stephen Lewis's Massey Lectures on Africa.Micaela Fitzsimmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10427173766014986497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949896548749620745.post-84997881268556615992012-07-05T19:28:24.034-07:002012-07-05T19:28:24.034-07:00Thanks, Margaret.

My black and white images are collagraphs printed on an etching press. It's a lovely process that I prefer above all processes, but currently I don't have an etching press, or easy access to one. Hopefully soon I'll be able to do some more printing. The images are then combined with hand-dyed and pieced cotton.Micaela Fitzsimmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10427173766014986497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949896548749620745.post-40709654455177913812012-07-04T20:45:13.910-07:002012-07-04T20:45:13.910-07:00Congratulations, Micaela!

Have a great show!Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04472013513744969837noreply@blogger.com
