Friendship Painting (10)
wool, silk, dye, pigment
10” x 14”
By Martha Tuttle
Tuttle uses traditional techniques to create mixed-media paintings. She spins, weaves, and dyes wool, and embellishes textiles that she makes with an assortment of materials such as graphite, stone dusts, and natural pigments. Instead of laying paint onto the surface of a canvas, the painting is the surface. Tuttle’s abstract compositions comprise a variety of hand-crafted materials of varying opacities. Her paintings reference bodily connections to the natural world through texture and translucence.
