The Broderers' Exhibition
The Art of Embroidery
We are delighted to hear that Skylark artist Diana McKinnon has been accepted for this prestigious exhibition at the Bankside Gallery.
Diana dyes vintage fabrics with rust and tea to colour a variety of fabrics that can then be cut and collaged to create the surface skin of these animals. Free motion embroidery defines the texture and creases of the animals.

There is no pre-set theme, and both contemporary and traditional artworks are included. Exhibitors range from established artists to emerging artists; all pieces are original and available for sale.
