Walls Talk


Walls Talk is finished - 120 hours of stitching!


John Dean is the photographer. He always does a superb job with my work.


There is lots of clear detail, which is important with this work, particularly because it is all about the materials. Click on the image to zoom in on the detail.
John can see light and he understands textiles are not watercolours. He deliberately sets up lights to make shadows. These images have shadows to show the texture which is one of the most distinctive elements of fibre art.
John's colours are true. Compare his images with my snaps in previous Walls Talk posts.
