For our first feature : Felt Works by Amy Burkard
Amy lives and works in Kelwona BC, as a maker of ceramics and felt sculptures. I happen to know her from Vancouver and I recently saw the wonderful families of felt objects she's been creating. Full of character and color, here is a small selection:
Amy Says:
"Inspired by the magnificence and beauty of nature and my surroundings, I seek to capture the whimsical aspects and simplicity of natural forms. Creating with clay, wool and other materials derived from nature, I take pleasure in the tactile and sensual qualities of these mediums. My sculptural forms can be viewed to have a utilitarian and or aesthetic purpose." For more of her work you can go to her Etsy shop at: http://www.etsy.com/shop/amybgirl
