FURNISHING FABRICS

FURNISHING FABRICS

Textiles printed on heavy cottons and canvas with conceptual imagery. Suitable for upholstery, cushions, and other interior furnishings. Fabrics initially designed and made for my installations and portraiture.

CHAIRS

Chairs as found objects are refinished with milk paint, waxed, and upholstered in hand screen printed textiles as a component of Beauty Revisited series.
