The Gail Harker Center for Creative Arts is having an online textile auction beginning Friday, November 15 and ending Sunday, November 17, 2024. Previously, I showed you the artworks I created for the auction but I thought you might like to take a look at some of the wonderful auction items created by Gail’s students. The theme for the textile pieces is The Enticing World of Plants. There are more than 50 textile artworks that are 5″ x 7″ with beautiful plant designs. If you are in the USA or Canada, you will be able to register and bid on items. Sorry to all of you across the pond, but the bidding is limited to the US and Canada due to shipping costs/concerns. I still thought that you would want to see all the lovely artwork.
These wonderful floral pieces are by classmate Christina Fairley Erickson. She has used a variety of techniques to create these small pieces of art. You can read the descriptions of all the items on the online auction site by clicking on the photos there.
These pieces above are by Penny Peters. She was one of Gail’s original City and Guilds students when Gail first came to the US and is now an instructor at Gail’s center.
Here are three of the pieces that I created and I have three more in this series in the auction.
I hope you will go and take a look at the auction and if you’re in the US or Canada, that you register to bid. There are some beautiful pieces that would make great holiday gifts for your friends and family!
This center is where I take classes and it’s one of my favorite places. Thanks Gail for everything you have taught me. I have really appreciated and benefitted from your expertise and knowledge of all things textile and embroidery.
