Julie of Subversive Cross Stitch pointed me to the beautiful stitched mixed media art by Dana Robson of aquarabbit. From the site, “My pieces start with an idea, a feeling, or just a simple picture, and I like the way they expand and change, showing me what they want to be. I like exploring the intersection of craft and art, always working with the perfectionist’s eye gained from my years of studying clothing design. In addition to needlepoint, I also work with acrylics (on canvas, wood, and scraps of paper), watercolor pencil, and painting on glass.” Dana’s got a show this Friday 7pm – Midnight at Space Gallery (1141 Polk Street @ Sutter) which is a group show benefiting the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Pictured above is “but will you know me tomorrow?”, mixed media on canvas. [ via ] Link.
