Local Profiles: Anne Leon

This afternoon I'm flying home to visit the Shire and see some local artists' work. Anne Leon is a textile artists and educator based in Byron. I've taken classes with Anne and worked in her studio, such inspiration! Below is some of her work featured at the recently renovated Art Piece Gallery in Mullumbimby.

Scarves, Wraps and Blankets - Plant died wool.

After watching the Sex and the City movie I must have had wedding gowns on the brain. I imagine this to be layered and very voluminous. Hand dyed taffeta, perhaps, or raw silk, or maybe muslin. Something light and sheer I think. The wearer should feel she is floating, a bit cliche I know, but girls can dream. Just look at those extreme gowns in Sex and the city.
