All about me!

 
Karen Ives
Textile Artist, Designer and Maker
 



I am a textile artist and member of 02Textiles, an exhibiting textile group. I enjoy teaching and sharing my ideas. There is nothing more rewarding than inspiring others to feel the way I do about the creative process. Creativity is essential for my existence; I absorb ideas and inspirations constantly.

Recently I have been working with a combination of fabric and paper, collaging layers together as a basis for stitch.My style is heavily influenced by vintage fabrics, lace and distressing techniques.
