One to keep an eye on in the world of African Fabric is Lisa Shepard who sells a very wide selection of African fabrics in her store front in 1417 Main Street in the Arts District of downtown Rahway, NJ , online and you can book to have a virtual tour of her studio HERE
I came across Lisa when she did the Live Event, which had a great selection of artists talks sharing their work, it was great to be among so many others who were passionate about fabric.
Check out her video below: She has written several books which has a lot of hints and tips for ideas that you can make - click on the images to find out more!
Welcome to this weeks episode of Arts and Wellness Café where the topic is whether or not you realize how Remarkable you are?
In the video we think about the word and our creativity and we look at stepping into it. At the end of the day you have to let go of any fears or doubts that you have and just go for it!!
Have a look at the video below: We also cover a book review and Art Journal Page
What creative activities are you holding yourself back from, fearing what others might think or say when you share. I always say that if you don't share you miss out on reaching that person that is sitting thousands of miles away and would be inspired by what you have to say - you could change their life, inspire and give them hope.
But if you listen to that one person sitting in a dusty basement in their leggings trawling from one site to the next looking to see how negative they can be in the comments you have missed out on an amazing opportunity to spread your joy, be part of a community and see your creative activities grow!!
The book that we cover in this episode is Creative Bloom, it has some great projects using wire and I love the gardening references.
In 'Question of the week I ask 'How long have you been playing it small, hiding your light, and how long are you going to continue? I would be interested to hear what you think, are you - have you just broken free and now shining like the stars?
It was great to be one of the teachers for Life Book 2021 and we created a stitched wall hanging for our bonus lesson,
