The Sound of Red Mini Art Tapestry, 2023

Tapestries are often defined by a random placement of a color. The Sound of Red Mini Art Tapestry was defined by a tiny color that spoke loudly in this piece of art. A true collectable piece. A unique yarn with popcorn colors, produced a couple tiny concentrated spots of red. In an otherwise turquoise infused hand woven tapestry. When a tiny red feather jewelry find matched, this art piece found new meaning. It became loud and speaks for those with a small voice. Found fibers include silky angel fur, ribbon, linen unique string, soft chenille, unique feathered and popcorn yarns. The high quality oval jewelry pendant contrasts with the circle bracelt. Showcased on a metal ornament hanger, not included with your tapestry artwork.

These creative pieces are hand woven on an old fashion metal loom. Yarns are a variety of material, mostly unique one of a kind. Many will have yarns of cotton, wool, linen, mohair, faux furs, string yarns, flag yarn, ladder, ribbon, silks, rayon, polyester, velvet, chenille and anything unusual. Everything goes through a rigorous cleaning, winding into a ball, color sorted and showcase unusual yarns to become the centerpiece of a new tapestry. Jewelry pieces are found treasures that often are the inspiration for the tapestry. You may find a bracelet, pieces of jewelry taken apart and reworked, pin or a whimsical accent all of high grade vintage jewelry. Items are cleaned with alcohol and refurbished to sparkle and enliven these works of art. Many will often have swarvski crystals added into these works of art. Metal link necklace that finishes the artwork for unique display.
My recently found vintage metal loom prompted exploration into boxes of scrap yarns, fibers & vintage jewelry that I have collected for a decade. In 2021, mini fiber art tapestry’s were born from these found treasures. Each piece of artwork takes hours searching for treasured fibers to combine textures, colors and design to infuse nostalgic harmony with the vintage jewelry accents. One of a kind limited works of art will be produced until the box of found treasures are gone.
