fabric
Chris enjoys spending time with nature, whether it’s hiking in the Georgian Bay area, in Banff, or in British Columbia. Chris has been working with fabric for approximately 10 years, starting with small wall hangings and gradually teaching herself how to create realistic landscape art. When viewed from a distance, Chris’ works look like paintings — people are encouraged to come closer to see what is done with the fabric. Most people are amazed when they realize it is all done with small pieces of fabric that are carefully layered, stitched and stretched on canvas.
