Petals in Thread
by Eileen Myers

From May 1st

Eileen Myers was born in England and is a graduate of Nottingham College of Art, where she specialized in fashion design.

Her current body of work is inspired by her deep appreciation of flowers, capturing their beauty, movement and delicate complexity. She works in a range of mediums including oils, acrylics, and watercolour, continually exploring new techniques to expand her artistic voice.

Recently, she has been experimenting with painted fabric and thread painting, a process of free-motion stitching using a sewing machine as the fabric is guided by hand rather than fed automatically.

Since relocating to Colborne in 2020, she has become an active member of the Colborne Art Gallery, where her work has been featured in five exhibitions each year.
