Last night was the opening reception for “The Art of Cloth”, a gallery show of the fiber art from FAB, a local group of artists which I have been a member of for the last 2-1/2 years.

When we walked in last night, I promptly gave the camera to my husband and asked him to take pics for the evening.

This morning I thought I’d share with those of you who are too far away to come see the show a small sampling of it. The show was laid out with the first gallery being group projects and challenges.  In the second gallery each artist had a section to display their artwork in.

Christine Scholz:

Christine  created this wonderful piece….I love the reflections she’s captured in it!

Keep your eyes open for this artist, she’s got a lot of raw, natural talent!

Jean Funderburk:

Jean  made this photo transfer piece in tribute to her grandmother.

I have long been in awe of Jean’s creativity and level of work.

K. Grace Howes:

Grace’s work in abstract contains a great deal of depth.

She also makes wonderful handmade art journals, which unfortunately,

DH did not capture a picture of, but which I am blessed to have one of!

DeLane Rosenau:

Delane’s work in wearable art is truly unique and not to be missed!

Notice the beaded button, that is another of DeLane’s talents…she is a spectacular beader.

Judy Whitehead:

My work portrays nature, as that is my major source of inspiration.

Enjoying the evening:

If you are in the area, the show runs until July 3, 2009 at the Lincoln Cultural Center,  403 East Main Street, Lincolnton, NC and is open Monday through Friday.
