Rose Marie Salmon
Embroidery and Paint on Canvas
This is a blog of pictures of my work from shows in New Zealand and Australia going back the last few years.I have always worked steadily as an artist I have participated in various group shows and also have solo shows.
The work I am currently making is in a self taught medium.
I spend a lot of time investigating my themes and draw inspiration from a range of topics.
I use the qualities of the thread to create areas of sharp line juxtaposed with chaotic loose hanging thread, which allows the images to be very formal, and also tumultuous.
I intend to discus an idea of traditional ‘women’s work’ which has become unhinged.
The conventional sampler has become troublesome.
