Butterfly Wing Nature TapestryLark Erin strives to capture the most minute details found in the ephemeral beauty of natural wonders.
Whimsical little faces appear in this closeup weaving of a butterfly wing. Abstract and primitive, it makes the beholder smile. Lark Erin is a second generation MFA earning tapestry weaver. She absolutely loves the color and texture found nowhere else, yet intrinsic to fiber. |
This form of tapestry weaving is the traditional Aubusson technique she learned from Jean Pierre Larochette, a multi-generational French weaver. She weaves from the back side of the warp and stitches the cartoon onto the front, so she won't know the end appearance until the entire tapestry is completed.
Each tapestry is one of a kind. She uses heavy cotton warp for the weft, and cotton embroidery floss and metallic threads for the weft. Framed with custom varnished wood, this tapestry is 8 7/8" W x 9 3/8" H x 1 3/8" Deep.
Each Lark Erin tapestry is a work of other-worldly beauty, and an attempt to capture the ever elusive qualities in the natural world. When she weaves, her spirit dances, and when the tapestry is finished, the dance will live forever.
