May 2024 Guest Artists
Cherylee Duncan
There is a school of thought that artists must have only one recognizable style but I have too
much artful energy to adhere to that “rule”. If I have a distinct trademark, I would label it “eclectic”.
I abhor waste and therefore get excited about reusing and upcycling as much as possible.
When I crochet rugs from all recycled fabrics (see my regular display here within the gallery), I
save bits and pieces for use in my mixed media paintings. This method, along with using
only what I already have on hand, is how I’ve created this series, Threadscapes. I am elated to
find the perfect scrap of lace, thread, rope, shoestring, yarn, dried flowers from my garden,
pencil shavings, dried paint scraps, old gel medium I’ve sculpted, stamp-carving remnants,
upholstery samples, curtains, doilies, bits of jewelry, etc, to emulate nature’s delight in each
piece; the options are excitingly endless. I invite you to look closely and enjoy the texture!
