Well dang, the first post of the week is the mid week post. This tends to happen more often than I plan, but sometimes life just gets in the way of blogging, you know? I suppose it’s better that way; once blogging gets in the way of life it may be time to do some reevaluating.
Anyway, how cool is Emily Barletta? I stumbled across her work through The Jealous Curator‘s Pinterest Board and no longer had to search for this week’s artsy inspiration post. In case there was any doubt in your mind, take a textile or fiber art medium, mix in a cool pattern and great color and you’ll basically have me swooning over it, and this Brooklyn fiber artist nailed it.
I love the simplicity of just two materials: thread and paper, and the repetition of a single movement to create such a complex yet natural composition.
There are a lot more great pieces to ogle over at her website! She also has a great blog that shares snippets of current work and process.
